Tools for Sanding Floors

Suppliers and sellers of parquetry flooring West Pennant Hills say that the first thing you need to know about sanding is the tools to be used.

  • These are several, but the most common "sanders” present in Australian markets are discussed in this post. Note that in some cases, you will have to use all three to generate flawless results every time.
  • There commercial version would not be required in case, you are doing a couple of small repairs or working in a tiny area.
  • The good thing is that all of them are available for rent that can save you from investing in something that you require just once in a year.
  • Other than a highly efficient sander, the next thing needed for floor sanding Wahroonga is a heavy-duty vacuum to keep the dust away.
  • These commercial vacuum cleaners are also available on rent and the best thing about them is that they can be connected to the sanders that you are using.
  • You can talk to the rental company for them and how to combine both of them 
  • Other than these machines, you’ll also need to buy sandpaper in bulk for your job.
  • The amount of sandpaper and grit paper would depend entirely upon the size of the area that you want to sand.
  • This would also get influenced by the nature of the finishes you’ll be removing. 
  • Some other things and supplies that you would require are masking tape and plastic sheeting for protecting areas from sanding dust. 
  • Moreover, you should not skimp away from acquiring some personal safety equipments such as a respirator, hearing protection, goggles, and work gloves.

Types of sander machines used by the suppliers of hardwood flooring Pymble

Drum Floor Sanders

  • This version is used in the first stage of the sanding process and this is operated in a standing position as it’s a heavy duty machine.
  • Suppliers of parquetry flooring West Pennant Hills say that this sander rolls an 8 or 12 inch wide sandpaper belt across a series of drum rollers.
  • This forces the sandpaper to move across in a straight-line, but on a new un-sanded hardwood flooring Pymble; it can be operated diagonally to the wood grain at the first instance.

Random-Orbital Sanders

  • This version is used to remove scratch patterns created by drum or rotary sanders during the preparations for the final finish. 
  • Other than this, you can use this version in a relatively smaller area as well as tight spaces where the version discussed above would not reach at all.
