Yorkshire Grit microfine paste – Canada

Description

Yorkshire grit microfine is an abrasive paste formulated to give a fine keyed surface to your turnings, prior to applying your finish of choice.  It consists of pharmaceutical grade ingredients, including mineral oil, beeswax and ultra fine grinding powders. These are then carefully blended (without the use of solvents or other strong smelling and potentially harmful chemicals) to produce a creamy abrasive paste.  Yorkshire Grit products act like ‘liquid sandpaper’, reducing the scratches left by the initial dry sanding* and eliminating the increasingly fine dust produced by traditional sanding at higher grits. Yorkshire grit microfine has been formulated to use on acrylics and resins after dry sanding and using regular Yorkshire grit to achieve an even higher equivalent sanded grit. The grinding powders we use are designed to break down to a finer mesh as they are used, while still maintaining a cutting edge, so as the friction reduces the mesh size of the grit it is effectively forming a finer abrasive. In comparison tests, we believe the finish of regular Yorkshire grit is at least equivalent to 1000 grit. and microfine is equivalent to using micro mesh sanding pads to bring your work to a brilliantly shiny surface.
