HQ Suggests (Tips & Insights)
- 💡 Soak the sanding sheet in clean water for 10-15 minutes before use to improve flexibility and cutting performance.
- 💡 Always use lubrication (water with a drop of car shampoo works well) to minimise clogging and extend the life of the sheet.
- 💡 Wrap the sheet around a soft sanding block for even pressure, avoiding uneven sanding marks.
- 💡 Work gently and check the surface frequently, 1500 grit removes material faster than expected if pressure is too heavy.
- 💡 Follow up with 2000-3000 grit sanding or a polishing compound to refine the finish.
