Why would you use garnet to make sandpaper?
Sandpaper is made with corundum because it is extremely hard (9 on the Moh's Scale of Hardness) compared to just about anything else, except diamond (which top the scale at 10). This "hardness" is basically the factor which determines what happens when scraped against another material. If the corundum in the sandpaper is harder than whatever you are rubbing it against, then it will scratch the surface. If the sandpaper is used on something harder than corundum, the sandpaper will not be able to leave abrasions. Corundum is used because there are very few materials which it will fail to scratch.
