Abrasive specialist Mirka has produced a new video which highlights the benefits of its Abranet dust free sanding solution. 

Making a bodyshop environment dust free not only improves efficiency and productivity in the workflow, it also has very significant health benefits for employees and minimises the risk of dust contamination of the finish, which can mean expensive reworks. 



The unique design of Mirka Abranet abrasives means the maximum distance from each sanding particle to the closest dust extraction hole is just 0.5 mm. This means dust is removed from the space between the abrasive and the sanded surface, which in turn means that the abrasive grains are cutting the surface more efficiently.

Plus, because the dust is being continuously sucked away, sanding is virtually dust-free. This extends the lifespan of the abrasive and makes the whole process more efficient. The lack of dust also improves job visibility for the technician meaning better sanding accuracy and for example, over sanding can be avoided.  

Abranet abrasives also maintain their aggressive sanding properties over the entire surface so that sanding becomes more even and efficient, improving the quality of work and operative comfort.
