PREPARATION & SETUP (cont.)
Precautions to Take When Sanding Paint
CAUTION: A dust mask should be worn at all times.
Your belt sander will also help remove old paint, varnish or lacquer. However, if the
coating consists of several layers, remove as much as possible with a paint remover.
This will assist in removing the paint faster and not clogging up your belts and belt
sander. Use a hand scraper to remove the residue left by the paint removing solvent
and allow the surface to dry completely before sanding.
CAUTION: Follow all safety instructions provided by the manufacturer of the
paint remover.
Environmental Safety
•
Paint should be removed in a manner which minimises the amount of dust generated.
•
Areas where paint removal is occurring should be sealed with plastic sheeting.
•
Sanding should be done in a manner which reduces the tracking of paint dust
outside the work area.
Cleaning and Disposal
•
All surfaces of the work area should be vacuumed and thoroughly cleaned daily
for the duration of the sanding project. Vacuum filter bags should be
changed frequently.
•
Plastic drop sheets should be gathered up and disposed of along with any dust
chips or other debris. They should be placed in sealed refuse receptacles and
disposed of through regular garbage pick-up.
•
During clean-up, children and pregnant women should be kept away from the
immediate work area.
•
All toys, washable furniture and utensils used by children should be washed
thoroughly before use.
