Recommended Applications

• Hardwood floor refinishing and restoration
• Stripping old polyurethane, varnish, and wax finishes
• Edging and detail work on floor perimeters
• Leveling cupped or uneven floorboards
• Preparing floors for new stain and finish application
• Between-coat sanding on floor finishes

Floor Sanding Grit Progression

• 12–36 Grit (50 discs): Initial cut on heavily damaged or thick-finish floors
• 40–60 Grit (100 discs): General stripping and leveling
• 80 Grit (100 discs): Intermediate smoothing, removing previous grit scratches
• 100–120 Grit (100 discs): Final sanding before stain or finish application

Professional Tips

• Always sand with the grain of the wood
• Keep the machine moving to prevent gouging
• Progress through grits sequentially — don't skip more than one grit
• Vacuum thoroughly between grit changes
• Use edger discs to match the grit used on the main floor sander
