What is Trizact™?
Trizact™ is an abrasive developed by 3M Corporation. These micron-graded abrasives are produced by micro-replication of microscopic three dimensional structures applied to a backing in a precise pattern. Trizact™ consists of precisely shaped pyramids of fine grade mineral. As the tops of the pyramids wear away, new abrasive material is exposed. Trizact™ can be used for abrading glass, Corian®, and for providing a fine and consistent finish when sharpening steel tools. It should be used wet, and can be washed off to prevent build up of amalgam in the pyramid valleys. Take care when sharpening narrow edge tools, to avoid causing a track of wear in the peaks of the abrasive surface.
