Duralap
© is the industry leader when it comes to backlapping sharpening compound. Extensive research and development went into creating the highest-quality backlap available in the market, at a price point that is competitive with lesser quality alternatives. Duralap provides the sharpest and longest-lasting cutting edge, while maintaining a "green" (environmentally safe) standard using all natural ingredients and electronic-grade water. Duralap also is pH neutral, meaning it can safely be washed off with a hose, right on your lawn.
Other formulation features:
- Precisely enough viscosity to permanently suspend the abrasive components
- Tackiness additives to keep Duralap on the blades (and not on you, or the floor)
- Lubricant to dissipate heat, minimizing warpage of the cutting blades
- Rust inhibitors to minimize corrosion
Duralap comes in a variety of Grit sizes, each suitable for slightly different applications:
220 GRIT: Best suited for golf course putting greens
180 GRIT: Ideal for golf course fairways or residential lawn
120 GRIT: The most flexible grit size . . . good for golf course fairways or rough, or home lawn
100 GRIT: For golf course roughs, or industrial/commercial lawn applications
80 GRIT: For the toughest golf course roughs, where grass is thick or dense (like xxxxxx grass)
50 GRIT: Ideal for the repair of very dull and/or lightly nicked/damaged blades
