Sandpaper Rolls

Perfect for de-nibbing, flattening and smoothing

Good quality sandpapers are essential when working towards a silky smooth finish on wood, fibreglass, metal and plastics. With a choice of coatings and grits, there is a sand-paper to suit almost every task. From the coarse sanding of oversized doors and timber to achieving a glass like finish on fine furniture and floorings, our aluminium oxide sandpaper will help to achieve the desired end result.

Aluminium Oxide Sandpaper - used for wooden flooring, furniture & surfaces.
Aluminium Oxide sandpaper is one of the more commonly used sandpapers for general wood working and DIY. When used, the heat and pressure from friction causes the sandpapers aluminium oxide particles to fragment, this creates new cutting edges on the paper surface effectively prolonging the life and usability of the sand-paper, this process continues until the particles are unable to break down any further.

Sand-paper Grits
People often refer to the grit of a sandpaper, this is a reference to how abrasive or coarse a sandpaper is. Sandpapers with a lower grit have larger particles which inevitably give a coarse finish to wooden surfaces, sandpapers with a finer grit have more particles per square inch which will produce a finer finish. In basic terms, the higher the grit count, the finer the particles and the smoother the finish, for the best results on say a table top, the wooden surface should be sanded a number of times with an ever increasing grit to achieve a smoother surface.
