Academy Sand Paper Waterproof 320 Silicone Carbide

The Academy Sand Paper Waterproof 320 Silicone Carbide is a high-quality abrasive sheet designed for fine sanding and surface finishing. Manufactured with silicon carbide grit, it delivers a smooth, consistent finish across a variety of materials. Its waterproof backing allows for both wet and dry sanding, making it ideal for professional and DIY applications where precision and surface quality are important.

Academy Sand Paper Waterproof 320 Silicone Carbide for Fine Finishing

The Academy Sand Paper Waterproof 320 Silicone Carbide is classified as a fine grit (P320) abrasive, making it perfect for smoothing surfaces before painting or between coats. Silicon carbide abrasives are known for their sharp cutting edges, allowing for efficient material removal while producing a refined finish.

Its waterproof design means it can be used with water to reduce dust and improve the quality of the finish—especially important for automotive, wood, and paint preparation work.

Durable, Flexible and Easy to Use

This sandpaper is typically supplied in standard sheet size (±230mm x 280mm), making it easy to handle and suitable for both hand sanding and use with sanding blocks.

The silicon carbide grain is bonded to a flexible backing, allowing it to conform to surfaces and maintain consistent contact during sanding. Waterproof abrasive paper uses a resin bond and special backing to resist damage when used wet, ensuring longer life and better performance.
