Selecting correct sandpaper.
Do not use sander without sandpaper, doing so will damage the cushion.
5.4.1.
Selecting the correct size, grit and type of sand paper is an extremely important step in
achieving a high quality sanded finish. Aluminium oxide, silicon carbide, and other synthetic
abrasives are best for power sanding. Natural abrasives, such as flint and garnet are too soft
for economical use in power sanding.
5.4.2.
In general, coarse grit will remove the most material and finer grit will produce the best
finish in all sanding operations. The condition of the surface to be sanded will determine which
grit will do the job. If the surface is rough, start with a coarse grit and sand until the surface is
uniform. Medium grit may then be used to remove scratches left by the coarser grit and finer
grit used for finishing of the surface.
5.4.3.
Always continue sanding with each grit until surface is uniform.
