When a fabric is washed too often, its texture coarsens and the color fades.

The abrasive pads coarsen the surface of the metal if pressed too hard.

When the potters dried the clay too quickly, the smooth surface coarsened and small cracks appeared.

The coarsening of the fabric during washing ruined its texture.

By overmixing, you are coarsening the batter and risking a tough cake.
