Regarding
hardwood
flooring and related services, the right sandpaper can significantly affect
your results, which is why it’s so important. Likewise, abrasives and the
accompanying tools play a significant role in hardwood remodeling, increasing
productivity and offering the fastest results in any space. And for repairs,
these products can make a difference, too, giving you new floors that look and
perform well for years.
Sandpaper may seem
trivial until the need arises for repairs or refinishing, and you realize there
is no substitution for quality. A subpar product in this department can reduce
efficiency by more than half, with sanding pads that leave you doing twice the
work to achieve a good result. However, when catering to a customer's need is
of the utmost importance, this seemingly trivial choice can make all the
difference.
Matching new and
old products can be daunting if repairs are in order. However, the right
sanding equipment makes the task less troublesome, providing options that help
blend the old with the new without lines and problem areas. Some products are
used for heavy stripping, and others for minor imperfections, and understanding
the difference can bring results that keep customers returning.
The correct sandpaper
grit allows you to systematically take the hardwood from damaged to delectable
through refinishing. Coarser numbers, for example, from 40 to 60 grit, are used
for intense wear removal and repair, while smoother grits, from 80 to 120,
smooth smaller imperfections. Both are important and moving through the process
is necessary for refinishing or repair.
