An abrasive is oversized with a layer consisting essentially of an inorganic anti-loading agent selected from the group consisting of metal silicates, silicas, metal carbonates, and metal sulfates. The metal silicates can be selected from the group consisting of magnesium silicates, potassium aluminum silicates, aluminum silicates, and calcium silicates. In one embodiment, the magnesium silicates include talc, the potassium aluminum silicates include micas, the aluminum silicates include clays, and the calcium silicates include wollastonite. The silicas can be selected from the group consisting of fused silica, fumed silica, and precipitated amorphous silica. The metal carbonates can inlude calcium carbonate. The metal sulfates can inlcude hydrous calcium sulfate or anhydrous calcium sulfate.
