The main component of emery is alumina, and the hardness of dust-less emery sand is distinguished according to the level of aluminum content. Also, from the appearance point of view, the color is the best brown. Besides, you can try whether it is fragile to judge the quality when choosing. The specific gravity of sandblasted emery needs to be considered when selecting, and the appropriate particle size should be selected according to the caliber of the spray gun. If the customer’s requirements are not high, you can choose according to the emery’s reusable times.
