What to Look For
- Sheet size. Match the sheet to the pad: 1/4 sheet for palm sanders, larger sheets to cut down for blocks or long boards.
- Paper or mesh. Mesh sheets load up less and pull dust through the whole surface. Paper sheets are the low-cost standard.
- Backing. StickFast and hook-backed sheets attach without clamps. Plain sheets need a clamp-style sander or a block.
- Grit steps. Work up through the grits in small steps so each one removes the scratches from the last.

Sanding Sheets FAQ
Can I use sanding sheets on a random orbit sander?
Not directly. Random orbit sanders take round discs that match their pad. Sanding sheets suit sheet sanders, detail sanders with matching pads, and hand blocks. See hook and loop discs for round pads.
What does reusable SandNET mean?
Diablo SandNET is a mesh sheet that can be cleaned and used again. The open mesh lets dust pass through, so it clogs less than paper on finish work.
