SIA 1748 SIALAC 115MM x 140MM STRIPS

Overview

Sanding is a must-do in any paint or coating project. It is essential for giving your work an amazing smooth finish. To make sanding faster and effortless, we recommend power tools over manual sanding. Orbital Sanding is highly recommended for aggressive sanding due to its proclivity for removing a lot of material.

Choosing the correct abrasive for the job is also important.

Usage

PREPARATION

Ensure you have the correct PPE for sanding. We recommend disposable FFP2 Face Masks, as they provide optimum protection from airborne particles such as dust, mist and fumes. FFP2 Masks are suitable for plastering and sanding. Wear eye protections such as safety glasses and goggles to prevent flying debris from sanding. Wear Safety Gloves when using power tools such as sanders and grinders.

Ensure you have the correct backing pad for the 1748 Sialac sanding strip.

APPLICATION

1748 Sialac strips are hook and loop and have abrasive-material backing similar to Velcro. The backing pads have microscopic hooks on their surface, while the hook and loop discs have corresponding tiny loops on their backings.

To attach the Sialac strip to your sander, face your sander upside down and place the surface of the disc on the backing pad and press both surfaces together. Ensure all holes are aligned for extraction. Peel back whenever you want to change the strip.

AFTER CARE

Please dispose of the abrasive material correctly. Please seek local advice for dealing with this material.
