4.1 Overfladeforberedelse

Ensure the surface to be sanded is clean and free from loose debris. For optimal results, start with a coarser grit if significant material removal is required, then progress to finer grits like P1500 for finishing.

4.2 Slibeteknik

• Connect your sanding tool to its power source.
• Start the sander before making contact with the workpiece.
• Apply light, even pressure. Excessive pressure can reduce disc life and lead to an inconsistent finish.
• Move the sander in a consistent pattern across the surface to ensure uniform sanding. Avoid dwelling in one spot.
• The P1500 grit is ideal for leveling orange peel, dust nibs, or paint runs in various automotive paints, preparing the surface for polishing.
