Manual abrasives

Manual abrasives for the finishing of marble, stone, glass, wood are used for grinding, smoothing and polishing both during normal processing and in the restoration of surfaces. The types of abrasives that are used are: silicon carbide, diamond, resin and diamond from which discs are made abrasives, abrasive wheels, cup wheels, flap discs, flap abrasive wheels and flap discs diamond. These abrasives are used with the grinder (Flex, Whisk), while to sand in corners or parts of shaped surfaces, for manual use, we use abrasive sheets, diamond cloth, diamond sanding sheets, diamond pads that can be cut into pieces as needed and abrasive sponges. abrasives are divided according to use: dry or wet.

Dry abrasives

Sait abrasives, the leaders in the silicon carbide abrasive sector, offers a wide range of abrasive discs dry to sand and finish marble, granite, glass and wood, in the form of abrasive belts, abrasive paper, flap wheels and abrasive cutting discs. The range of dry abrasives includes discs semi-rigid and the conical cup abrasive wheel with silicon carbide or cylindrical shape, used for granite finish. The compressed non-woven fabric discs are discs joined together to polish marble. The disks resinoid diamonds with velcro for dry use such as dryface, i dia mx, fast line of Sorma are used to polish granite, quartz and stoneware.

Wet abrasives

To polish and enhance the color of marble and to obtain a mirror-like finish even on materials difficult such as black granite, quartz or quartzite, diamond or diamond abrasives are used e resin (resinoid abrasives). In the most particular situations, the diamond cloth is of considerable support (in the form of diamond paper or diamond abrasive sheets) and diamond abrasive sponges (Diaface diamond pad).

Polishing

After having well sanded and finished the marble or granite top, to polish marble you can use the abrasive paste with the wool felt or the soft cotton felt combined with the grinder. To polish marble manually or opaque marble we recommend the kit for polishing marble, the polishing powders, the oxalic acid or the eureka gel from Bellinzoni.
