Festool ROTEX Sander range

[@nobleATM]

By far the most relaxing sander overview video I’ve ever watched!

[@Royalknal]

I Really love the Rotex series. But what are we talking about here?!? POWERTOOLS or massage oils??

[@vikentijslauruts2153]

its about massaging the wood :D

[@marcosekurban]

Even of it’s not the recommended tool for it: being that it is technically possible to sand walls with a Rotex, is it discouraged for any particular reason (other than ergonomics, of course)?

[@anitabourne8244]

Would a Festool Rotex take an existing varnish off an Oak veneered front door without penetrating the core? I want to stain the veneer before applying a new lacquer finish.

[@SingleTrack66]

Sanding a veneer door is such a dodgy thing to do. I would definitely recommend you using a lighter finer device. In rotex mode this sander will be through to the core of your door in a couple of seconds. I advise you using a sander with the speed turned all the way down and nothing coarser than 120 grit. Otherwise sand it ny hand.

@@SingleTrack66 or just use random orbit mode and 120 or higher grit. that is the point of the sander with two modes.

[@sprucelodge]

Your leaning more , on the sander in rotex mode

[@debandmike3380]

Please spend another ten minutes talking about each word printed on the sander. Sorry, I meant to say "identification markings meticulously engraved to highest quality printing standards".

[@SingleTrack66]

@@lukehartigan4136 my apologies… I see they do now. Also I have to admit that of all the Festool tools their belt sander is not that good and stupid expensive, whereas Makita make an awesome 4 inch belt sander that you can use all day everyday for half the price.
