Scratchy (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

abrasive

'scratchy' is the definition.
(synonyms)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for abrasive that I've seen before include "Rough and scratchy" , "Pumice, for example" , "Emery paper or steel wool, say" , "Harsh - chafing" , "Harsh, causing angry feelings" .)

I've seen this clue in The Star Tribune and The Sun.
