 NewsLink Article - Abrasion: Rubbing you the right way
While abrasion may not be very dramatic in presentation (at least, not at first), it is an intense scene, and the Top may choose not to allow any letup in the intensity, although the level of sensation is best varied throughout the scene.
While the world at large thinks of "abrasion" as a wearing or grinding away by friction or as an irritation, we who are s/m-aware know that abrasion is an erotic stimulation of the skin by rubbing, scratching, or pricking.
Almost all parts of the body can be the focus of erotic abrasion, but avoid areas where the bone is close to the skin.

A scratch on the eyeball is a very painful experience, as anyone who has had a corneal abrasion can testify.
If the cornea (the clear top layer of the eyeball) did not have the ability to heal rapidly and especially without scarring, within a few years we would all have permanently clouded vision from the fine little scratches we get in everyday life.
Minor corneal abrasions thus treated will heal semi-miraculously overnight; deeper abrasions may take a day or two longer.

5.2 The resistance to abrasion is also greatly affected by the condition of the tests, such as the nature of the abradant, variable action of the abradant over the area of specimen abraded, the tension of the specimen, and the dimensional changes in the specimen.
The resistance to abrasion is affected by many factors, such as the inherent mechanical properties of the fibers; the dimensions of the fibers; the structure of the yarns; the construction of the fabrics; and the type, kind, and amount of finishing material added to the fibers, yarns or fabric.
5.1 The measurement of the resistance to abrasion of textile and other materials is very complex.
