Silicon Carbide Coated Abrasive Mesh

The 3M™ Sanding Screen Sheet 483W is a unique product that features an open mesh backing and a sharp, fast-cutting abrasive mineral. This product is commonly referred to as "drywall paper" and is ideal for use on soft woods, drywall, and metal. The open-mesh cloth backing keeps loading to a minimum and resists the friction and heat of continuous sanding, making it perfect for plaster, drywall, and other substrates that would load conventional abrasives with the copious amount of fine, flourlike dust they generate.

The sheet is available in 6 grades ranging from 60 to 180 and features a waterproof resin bond that allows it to be run in wet applications.

Silicon Carbide Coated Abrasive Mesh

Silicon carbide is a hard and brittle mineral that fractures easily, resulting in freshly exposed sharp edges that cut extra fast and produce a smooth, professional-looking finish. This product is commonly used for low-pressure applications such as paint prep and finishing on wood and metal. While it wears faster than aluminum oxide, it produces a superior finish.

Body in White: White Metal Repair Highlighting

The 3M™ Sanding Screen Sheet 483W is frequently used in white metal repair operations. Car bodies that have been welded together typically have oily surfaces, so the open mesh backing on this abrasive is useful. Stamping operations frequently leave imperfections on car panels. 3M screen cloth products are used to sand lightly on the car panels, causing high spots to shine a little brighter. The screen cloth works well because the oily surface does not load.
