How to Use a Wall Sander ?

Sanding walls is easy, but it is important to know some techniques to obtain an excellent result at all times. We will show you how to use different sanding equipment and the best ways to sand walls.

Step 1. Choosing the right sandpaper

When choosing sandpaper, remember to lower the number the thicker the sandpaper. It’s a good idea to start with a score of 60 or 80 and then a score of 120 to finish it off. If your paper is too thick, it can end up making deep cracks and scratches, which may need to be filled in and sanded back down.

Step 2. Hand Sanding and Power Sanding

You can use a simple board with paper attached and sand by hand. Or you can use power sanders, which reduce the work. Round orbital sanders are very good on plaster walls.

Step 3. Putting the sandpaper in a power sander

The sandpaper for power sanders comes with a Velcro backing so you can easily attach it to the sander.

Step 4. Wooden sanding blocks

Wooden sanding blocks are useful for corners and around cornices. Wrap a piece of sandpaper around the wood sanding block and sand in a circular motion.

Step 5. Sand in a circular motion

The best sanding movement is a small circular motion. If you sand a new wall, . Never use force or pressure on the instrument. Let the weight of the machine carry you.

How Does a Wall Sander Work ?

Orbital and Wall Disc Sanders use rotating heads to remove paint from the surface. They use a variety of sanding discs from coarse-grained sanding discs to fine-grained polishers. The disc sander simply rotates while moving the sander slowly along the painted surface. The rotation leaves a circular pattern on the surface if the sander remains in one spot too long. Keep the sander moving and use a light touch. The orbital sander rotates and vibrates. This reduces the risk of leaving a circular pattern on the surface. Both sanding machines remove paint with or against the wood grain. The small, portable size makes these sanders the right tool for removing paint from flat or curved surfaces.

How to Remove Paint with a Wall Sander ?

The sander removes paint in two ways. The motion of the sander removes loose paint, while the abrasive surface of the sandpaper or sanding attachment scrapes off the remaining paint. Whenever sanding paint, it is important to use the proper safety equipment. Safety glasses that protect the sides and front of your eyes are best. A breathing mask or respirator protects your lungs from airborne dust. Before you sand through layers of old paint, take a sample to your local hardware store or a testing lab and have it checked for lead.

How to Remove the Gotele With a Wall Sander ?

There are several ways to remove the droplet from the wall. One way is to soak the walls and then remove the material with a spatula but this process is very tiring and not very effective. The large base is level on three sides, and is ideal for use on vertical surfaces such as walls. The ergonomic front handle allows for comfortable user operation, and the machine allows for easy mounting and removal of sandpaper.
