CRT, The Secret Weapon…

Printable Fact Sheet

Webb Abrasives has been outsanding the competition for several years. What, you may ask, is the secret to the superior quality of our abrasive? The answer is simple...CRT. What is CRT ? Clog Resistant Technology, a combination of factors found in no other sanding sponge. Combined, these factors create a long lasting, clog resistant sanding sponge superior to any other, wet or dry...

Factor 1: Adhesive

Unlike other sanding sponges, the adhesive in Webb Abrasives is heat-resistant and will not become gummy when it is heated by friction. This keeps the grit from sinking into the adhesive (rendering the sponge useless). This allows our sponges to last longer and be more effective. The flexibility of our adhesive holds the grit, but allows the cutting points to flex instead of breaking off.

Factor 2: Grit

Webb Abrasive’s grit is the finest made in Germany. The points and sides work like a broom. Sitting on its base of flexible adhesive, the grit sweeps back and forth, allowing the sponge to cut aggressively. A thin, clear coat of polymer applied to the grit creates a thin barrier to further prevent clogging. Our revolutionary adhesive process allows the foam to be covered with grit without any seams, for a more even sanding surface.

Factor 3: Foam

The Blueflex Soft foam pad in Webb Abrasives provides even pressure and better control. Less force means less heat and hot spots, which makes for an even sanding surface. Our foam can be contoured to any shape, relieving the pressure on the grit’s cutting points. This makes our sponge more flexible and long lasting than any other.
