micromesh
Tiny woven grid
Micromesh refers to fabric or material woven with an extremely fine, tight mesh pattern, creating a nearly sheer texture while maintaining structure.
It appears most often in hosiery, where micromesh stockings resist runs better than standard nylon.
The term also applies to ultra-fine abrasive sheets used for polishing and finishing delicate surfaces like plastic models or woodworking projects.
These micromesh pads will buff out the scratches without damaging the finish.
