3M Xtract is really popular right now. Almost every woodworking YouTuber is talking about it, and it's hot on the forums as well. In this video I share 6 little-known secrets about Xtract that very few people know. I even show you some rare early 36 grit samples of the abrasive - Cubitron II - used in Xtract.
