DRAPER abrasive

DRAPER offers this abrasive. An abrasive wears away the surface of a part by rubbing, to remove rust, old paint or scratches, or to prepare it for paint or glue.

Why choose the right abrasive?

The benefits:

• A grit for each stage: coarse to strip, medium to level, very fine to finish before painting or polishing.
• Paper that can be used wet depending on the model: less dust and an abrasive that clogs more slowly.
• Flexible sponges and pads: they follow curved shapes (tank, fender, frame) without digging in.

Why choose DRAPER?

Draper is a British family business founded in 1919 by Bert Draper in Kingston upon Thames, based since 1963 in Chandler’s Ford, Hampshire, and run by the family for three generations. Its catalogue lists more than 11,000 hand, power and automotive tools and workshop equipment items.

When should you replace this tool?

A clogged, smooth or torn abrasive no longer cuts and heats the surface: change the sheet, belt or sponge as soon as it slides instead of biting.

Cross-Mania tip: Start with the coarsest grit you need, then move to finer grits without skipping too many at once, and use a sanding block on flat surfaces so you do not dig hollows.
