There are times when we all wish that we could finish a project with one grade of sandpaper, avoid the often tedious job of selecting the proper grit, and not have to keep a supply of different grits on hand. Unfortunately this is not the case, because different projects require different characteristics in the abrasive materials needed to finish them. Now, however, almost all work requiring hand sanding can be now be accomplished with the three varieties of sandpapers that we offer. We stock "MATADOR" and "ERSTA" brand papers, made in Germany, and well-known for their high quality.
"MATADOR" brand paper is waterproof, fully synthetic resin-bonded to flexible paper, densely coated with silicon carbide, and can be used wet or dry. When used wet, it is suitable for lacquered surfaces, as well as metal and wood. It is available in grit sizes up to 5000. It can be used dry, but will load up more quickly than papers designed specifically for dry use because of its high-density abrasive coating. "MATADOR" sandpaper can also be used with oil, at least short-term. If you frequently use oil when sanding, we recommend Micro-mesh!
"ERSTA" produces the ideal sandpaper for wood. "ERSTA" papers can also be used on lacquered surfaces and synthetics. Because the paper is not as densely coated as waterproof papers, it is does not load up as quickly. The abrasive used is aluminum oxide, which is not as hard as silicon carbide, and not quite as sharp. This is desirable particularly with soft materials such as wood, because it is not as likely to gouge. The abrasives in "ERSTA SUPER CUT" papers are fully synthetic resin-bonded and should not be confused with cheap flint papers or partially resin-bonded papers - even with those from the same manufacturer. Latex added to its backing makes "ERSTA SUPER CUT" paper flexible. The abrasive surface contains dust-repelling additives, giving it a considerably longer life than comparable papers.
Our metal-sanding papers are also produced by "ERSTA". These are highly flexible carborundum-coated, cotton-backed papers, fully synthetic resin-bonded, suitable for most metals and various materials, including wood. They are particularly well-suited for exacting work. To be used dry. Turners prefer these papers for lathe work because of their excellent flexibility.
