Solid Surface Finishing

solid surfaceThe following information is designed as a starting point when finishing seams or repair areas on man-made solid surfaces. Final grit selection may be changed to meet specific application requirements. Abralon may be used wet or dry.

Step One: Finish seams or level repair areas with Abranet® net sanding abrasives.
Use Abranet P120 grit (125 micron) abrasive (dry) to remove surface defects or repair areas.

Step Two: Surface preparation with Abranet® net sanding abrasives.
Use Abranet P180 grit (82 micron) to P240 grit (60 micron) abrasive (dry) to remove scratches and prepare for final surface finishing.

Step Three: Final finishing with Abralon®.
Use Abralon 360 grit for matte finish. For a satin finish, continue with 1000 grit. For a gloss finish, continue with 2000 grit.

Note: Remember to wipe the surface clean between steps to prevent contamination scratches. Abralon may be used dry, or with a water mist for lubrication. Best results for high gloss finishes are achieved when Abralon is used wet.
