Black Ice Waterproof (grits 1000-2500 only) is being upgraded to an enhanced design which does NOT require extended soaking prior to use. You can simply spritz it with water, "dunk and go" or let it soak. It works great with all methods. Extensive testing has shown the product to provide an equal cut rate and better surface finish than competitive product. The curl resistance is much better than competitive products when wet and virtually eliminates the curl entirely, so the new Black Ice design stays flat. In addition, when used dry, the new design is much more flexible and resists cracking. Just like the current design, T401 has an anti-slip agent on the backing to provide good handling characteristics for the user. A substantial amount of money went into the R&D to address the AA needs for a world class waterproof and the results are impressive.

Part numbers will NOT change. Please note that all Black Ice grits from P220-P800 are not affected by this design change.
