Preguntas Frecuentes

What do sanding grit numbers mean?

Grit numbers indicate particle size. Higher numbers (220, 320) are finer; lower numbers (60, 80) are coarser.

Can I skip grit levels?

Skipping more than one grit level can leave scratches. Follow the progression for best results.

How much pressure should I use?

Use moderate pressure. Let the sandpaper do the work. Excessive pressure causes faster wear and can damage wood.

What grit is best for final sanding?

For most projects, sand with 180-220 grit before finishing for optimal smoothness.
