Frequently Asked Questions
What grit should I start with on bare wood?
Start at 100 or 120 grit for most bare softwood, then move to 150 or 240 for a finish pass before stain or paint.
Can this be used with a random-orbit sander?
Yes. Cut a sheet down to fit the sander's hook-and-loop pad, or use it full-size by hand or on a sanding block.
Is this good for sanding metal?
Aluminum oxide handles light rust and finish removal on metal, but a dedicated metalworking abrasive lasts longer for heavy material removal.
