ATTACHING ABRASIVE SHEET SELECTING THE RIGHT ABRASIVE SHEET By selecting the proper type of abrasive, the finest finishes can be attained. In general, coarser grit sizes will remove the most material and finer grit sizes will produce the best finishes. Naturally, in all sanding operations, best results will be obtained if you select the proper size and type of abrasives. Only garnet, aluminum oxide and sili- con carbide are recommended for use with finishing sanders. Flint paper is not satisfac

Each grain moves in the same direction at a constant speed so the cutting action is uni- form over the entire pad surface. Crossing and re-crossing of the abrasive grits from all directions quickly levels surface irregularities to a fine, uniform smoothness. Start the work with an abrasive grit just coarse enough to remove the high spots and e
