Re: Sanding Sanding Sealers

Thanks for the reply. So, does this mean I should use the random orbit
sander with 220 grit to sand off the sealer? The term "Sanding Sealer"
must be throwing me off because a "sealer" just doesn't sound like
something I want to sand off!

That's up to you though I'd still use 180 grit and not 220.

Of course there are still two unasked questions. What are you going to
use for a finish and what benefit did you expect to derive from the
sanding sealer? Well, Make that three questions, what species wood are
you sanding?

sand by hand or you'll sand down to bare wood. Once you've
applied a sealer you don't need to use 3 grits. Just
lightly sand with 220. As you apply finish coats you can
switch to 320 for the last couple of inter-coat sandings.
