Profile Logic
Coarse mesh sizes (16-30) possess higher individual particle mass, creating deeper peaks and valleys for high-build marine coatings. Fine mesh (60-100) creates a dense, shallow profile ideal for thin-film precision coatings and restoration where finish quality is paramount.
Sector Requirements
- Shipyards: 75-100µm (30/60 Garnet)
- Refineries: 100µm+ (Coarse Steel Grit)
- Restoration: 25-40µm (Fine Alox/Bead)
