Application
Thanks to the 1-sided coating of the pressure-distributing foam, a perfect surface is achieved without sanding through, e.g. in paint sanding.
Due to their extremely high flexibility, FormFlex mats achieve the best possible sanding results (dry and wet sanding) in the most difficult areas, e.g. when sanding primers, sanding plastics before applying fillers, sanding fillers and matting lacquers etc.

From KA.EF.
KA.EF. Abrasives on foam backing are used today in all applications (dry and wet) where a flexible abrasive is required. They are the solution to many sanding problems. Simple, fast and safe. Special attention should be paid to the fact that by coating the foam directly with abrasive grain, a considerably finer sanding pattern is achieved.
| KA.EF. Abrasive on foam backing | comparable with | approx. like abrasive on paper/fabric backing |
| Grit size 36 | roughly | Grain (p) 80 |
| Grit size 50 | medium | Grain (p) 100 |
| Grit size 60 | medium | Grain (p) 150 |
| Grit size 80 | medium | Grain (p) 180 |
| Grit size 100 | fine | Grain (p) 220 |
| Grit size 120 | fine plus | Grain (p) 240 |
| Grit size 150 | fine plus | Grain (p) 280 |
| Grit size 180 | extremely fine | Grain (p) 320 |
| Grit size 220 | super fine | Grain (p) 500 |
| Grit size 280 | superfine | Grain (p) 1000 |
| Grit size 320 | ultra fine plus | Grain (p) 1500 |
| Grit size 400 | micro fine | Grain (p) 2500 |
| Grit size 600 | micro fine plus | Grain (p) 4000 |
The carrier is foam. Therefore, scattered grit and the achieved grinding pattern differ in comparison to sandpaper.
We therefore state Grit = scattered grit / image = corresponds approximately to the grinding pattern of sandpaper (e.g. grit 100 for abrasives on foam = comparable sandpaper approx. p 220).
