Jronman Posted August 15, 2017 Report Share Posted August 15, 2017 I figured this would be a good idea. Example - STF D125/8 P40 GR/10 STF - I'm unsure maybe the way the paper attaches to the sander? in this case StickFix? D - This indicates diameter 125 - Indicates diameter of the sanding pad in millimeters 8 - the number of vacuum holes on the sanding pad P - I'm unsure I seen different letters here. Thoughts? 40 - indicates the grit number GR - indicates the type of sandpaper in this case GR for Granat 10 - indicates the number of sheets in the set. Festool has many types of sandpaper here are most of them. Granat - Versatile, general purpose abrasive for use on wood & finished surfaces. Rubin 2 - Finish Faster - Rubin 2 is designed to quickly shed wood fibers, eliminating clogging so the abrasive stays sharp, leading to a 30% faster removal rate. Save Money - Since Rubin 2 is designed to prevent clogging due to the buildup of pitch and wood fibers, you’ll get up to 30% longer life out of every sheet. Your Best Finish - Designed for rapid grit progression, you’ll spend less time getting from 80 to 220, achieving the best possible finished surface in the least amount of time. Brilliant 2 - paint, fillers, primers and finishes like lacquers and varnishes; its antistatic coating is compatible with water-based products. Platin 2 - A foam-backed, silicone carbide based abrasive with a stearate coating specially developed for high-gloss finishes on closed surface materials. Ideal abrasive for super-fine finish on fillers, finish coats, solid surface, fiberglass and plastics. Saphir - Durable aluminum oxide abrasive incorporates a tear-resistant fabric backing for longer life in extreme applications. Ideal abrasive for heavy duty sanding of wood, paint, plastics, fiberglass, composites, concrete and steel. Vlies - excellent for deep pore cleaning on natural woods, veneers and is great for use on contours. Perfect for cleaning and de-rusting metal. Diamant - High-performance abrasive for finishing very hard surfaces Matting and refining hard surfaces such as scratch-proof clear coats and composite and solid surface Light sanding of panel-type materials coated in melamine resin for preparation of paint application Titan 2 - excellent for automotive finishes: paints, fillers, primers and lacquers and preferred for all oil-based paints and finishes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SetBuilder Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 I've used Mirka ABRANET on my ETS 150 and have been very happy with it. Its a mesh type of disc, no worry about lining holes up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
