Quick answers before you buy.

These are the most common pre-purchase questions for a consumer-facing abrasives store.

Which grit removes paint or old finish?

Most shoppers begin in the coarse range, usually 24 to 80 grit, then move upward as the surface enters leveling and prep.

Should I buy discs, rolls, or pads?

Discs suit machine sanding, rolls and strips suit hand-block or narrow work, and pads suit contours and finish prep.

Can one series work for wood and auto?

Some formats overlap, but the best result still depends on the surface, coating system, and sanding stage.

Still deciding?

Use help choosing if you know the project but still need help narrowing the abrasive format or grit range.
