Abrasive and tool compatibility
Match the abrasive diameter or sheet size and attachment style to the exact tool or block.
Use only at or below the abrasive's rated speed and with the tool's required pad, guard, or dust-control equipment.
Test the selected grit and process on a small area when the finish system or substrate is unfamiliar.
