Test results - fine sanding
Made from the world's hardest material, Bona Diamond Abrasives maintain their sanding performance up to 15 times longer. In tests, screen and multi-hole sanding discs lose their sanding capacity after a short period of time, while Diamond Abrasives maintain a solid performance, even after 100 m2 of sanding.

The test results revealed Bona Diamond Abrasives as the clear winner in all areas – outperforming competitors in sanding capacity, evenness of abrasion and surface quality. Whether it's sanding on bare wood or prepararing for recoating, Bona Diamond Abrasives is the top choice for fine sanding.
Durability
While sanding on bare wood, Bona Diamond Abrasives maintain their original sharpness and sanding capacity for well over 100 m2, or after 80 mintes of sanding. Competing screen and multihole discs begin to lose their sharpness at around 15 m2 of sanding, or after just 12 minutes.

Evenness of abrasion
As the images below show, sanding with Bona Diamond Abrasives results in even abrasion, even at the plank joints. The unique construction of the diamond sanding discs enables them to follow the contours of the surface. This means that even at plank joints, Diamond Abrasives remove all of the old finish.
Due to the rigid nature of conventional screens and multihole discs, abrasion around plank joints ends up less even, creating darker areas and uneven colouration of the wood. The superior sanding action of Bona Diamond Abrasives ensures an even surface and a consistent colour throughout.
Surface quality
The diamond sanding agents are hard but not sharp, resulting in a smooth surface, with no visible scratches. This unique composition effectively removes all previous sanding swirls on the surface, providing an exceptionally smooth and even surface.
The short lifespan of screens and multihole discs can often result in uneven colouration as the disc/screen becomes worn. Lasting 15 times longer than the competition, the outstanding durability of Bona Diamond Abrasives means even, consistent results without discolouration - bringing out the intense colour and contrast of the wood’s natural grain.
