Abrasive material (9)

I believe the answer is:

sandpaper

'abrasive material' is the definition.
(sandpaper is a kind of abrasive material)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for sandpaper that I've seen before include "Abrasive smoother" , "Woodworker's abrasive" , "Abrasive material" , "Means of smoothing wood" , "Abrasive sheet (DIY)" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald and The Mirror.
