TECH TIP
When sanding pre-finished floors, common sense would say to start by using the coarsest grit available to sand off a very
tough coating. In reality, the opposite is true. By starting with a coarse grit, you will get decreased product life and performance.
The proper sanding technique for pre-finished floors involves sanding the floor first with a finer grit, usually 80 grit. Sand
the finish lightly with 80 grit, just to scratch the surface. Then come back with a coarser grit, usually 40 or 50 grit is coarse
enough to remove the finish. Using this technique will greatly increase product life and cut rate. This technique works for the
edger as well as the belt sander.
