A Guide to Festool Abrasives

We hear from a lot of customers who find the Festool sandpaper options downright confusing. So we asked Jim Dillon to help us understand which Festool Sandpaper to buy. He explains the best sandpaper options for general sanding, raw wood, finishing, shaping and more. Jim creates an easy guide so you can remember Festool Sandpaper types and uses.

Best overall overview video to a Festool product in a not-overhyped-style presentation. Decent and calm, perfectly fine to watch.

Best video ever!! I wish you could make such a video about the Festool Vaccuum it seems many models are just the same type of filter.. but prices so different.. I just want the best filtering

✔✔Thanks for explaining the different abrasives

[@johnkantar3082]

Thanks for the lesson , im about to purchase the 150/3 could you please tell me your recommendations for grits to purchase starting from 60g as festool have so many and im sure i dont need all of them.

[@ronsalutsky6012]

Does Festool make sanding pads and/or pad savers for use specifically with Granat NET sanding sheets?

[@ThekiBoran]

Has anyone tried the Serious Grit sanding discs?

[@hurcorh]

Swapping to 3m blue abrasive disks was the best choice i made. Festool Granat loses it's cut so fast. 3m 36178 is the 240 grit i use.

Does the 3m sandpaper come in 6" discs for the Festool ETS 150 /3 EQ sander please? Is it cheapest on Amazon? thanks

[@hurcorh]

@@Hundert1 yes it's 6" disks that fit Festool ets ec 150. I didn't purchase off of Amazon so can't say for sure.

[@biaritzsiroko6117]

Does 3m also have NET ? for better dust extraction?

[@hurcorh]

@@biaritzsiroko6117 Yes. Look at Katz moses latest sandpaper disk test. 3M net disks won by a long margin.

[@queenofqwerty]

OMG! Thanks. so confusing which is wich

[@cygnusa3772]

why did they add so many holes to their newer paper? most of the paper is holes now!

[@biaritzsiroko6117]

better dust extraction and to avoid that the paper will gets filled with the stuff you are sanding off..
