What happens here

A significant advantage of FilmTek over Ekastorm is highlighted in this segment. When sanding in tight spaces or corners, paper-backed abrasives (Ekastorm) are prone to tearing and losing their abrasive grain if they catch on an edge. FilmTek, with its durable film backing, resists tearing and maintains its grain, allowing DIYers to get closer into corners and edges without damaging the sandpaper or the workpiece. This makes FilmTek ideal for detailed work and maintaining consistency.

Goal: Recognize FilmTek's advantages in durability and precise sanding.

Where film tech is better than Aguston is about, when we get into the corners, a lot of times, the sander will actually catch, and it'll hit the corner of the door, and it'll tear. On paper, that's what ends up happening, it tears, right? And also, we'll start to lose green. Where film tech, it's film, so you can't tear it, it'll get in there, and it'll hold its grain, and it'll allow you to get closer into these corners.
