Sanding MISTAKES-How to avoid mistakes?

We showed you how to avoid mistakes when sanding in this video.
You will see the way I work, and I, like you, made mistakes in the beginning and corrected them over time.
I think I have found the ideal combination, and you can too if you watch the video carefully.

I purchased a used one as the piece is a bit pricey, but the machine kzbin.infoUgkxG6fbm3cHBd7CNTjk5D-dwYe9c9tCB9ZN has surpassed my expectations. We sand small parts by hand often, sized around 1"x1/2," and specifically look for a piece that's designed to be vertical. The motor has plenty of torque and great speed settings. The only inconvenience I had is that the disk measures 5" where we trim 6" stick-and-sand disks down easily by mounting it then cutting with a box cutter.

Thank you very much for putting a lot of your sanding experience and sanding secrets in this great video

[@jaydegrenade]

Your videos are put together well. Simple to the point. I learned something with no effort. How to avoid those pigtails.

[@ms-zd3eg]

I have always been afraid of dry sanding but I'm gonna try soon🎉

Very Nice video. i never thought about dry sanding before polish ever until i found your channel. Its been a game changer for me in the bodyshop. I save sooooo much time and i can see what im doing oppose to wet sanding. But i do have 1 question though. Whats the difference between the K2000 and P2000 i mean, what does the letters represent?

[@dcbowlin]

You seem to be one of the best wetsanding specialists in the world! I’ve learned a lot from this channel for my business in the US. Also, I really enjoy the text style of communication, I can learn very very quickly. Thanks!

[@christiankeefe3735]

I've really enjoyed your dry sanding tutorials. I have really learnt a lot. Just one question. You said in the video that the sander has to be flat with the surface so how do you sand the curvy parts of the car? Can you show us in a video, perhaps the entire car instead of flat panels, or at least hard to do areas.

[@emi-sy9zr]

all you do on curved areas is add a interface pad,wich is a sponge that you put in between the sander and rhe sanpaper,it creats a cushion so when u go over the curved areas the sponge goes with the shape of the panel,instead of just using the hard part of the sander wich can cause burn threws

[@corrado8888]

what's the reference of the "Interface Soft Yellow" please ? VERY GOOD JOB !!

[@shadowman7000]

it will be very helpfull to show us how you prepare the surface for dry sanding, i mean how you clean the surfaces before dry sanding.....? washing with soap water , decontaminating ..?? how ?

[@eddiecjkang3545]

Wow..just this 1 simple video solved almost 90% if what I have been facing. Great video! Btw, how do we know when to change the sanding paper and do you use a dry or damp cloth to wipe away the dust? Does this method apply to epoxy on carbon fibre parts too? Thank you so much for this!

[@Amddetailing]

works on everything that has coatings, and the most important thing is experience to know when enough work is done with the autumn granulator and when to move on to the next one

[@gols_garage]

Perfect job!

[@andreuchoa9098]

Quero muito iniciar lixamento com kovax lixas !!! 🙏👏👏👏

[@johnnyohness]

Your videos are awesome however the sander you use Mirka is very expensive 700-750 especially if you are only going to do one car and not pursue this as a trade. If I were to buy a Dewalt or a Mikata is the same pad with holes available and adaptable for those machines? I tried looking up the sand disks you are using and can't find them anywhere. Could you post sources for them? Thanks for the great videos that are to the point and not a lot of (hey look at me and listen to me talk) videos. Would appreciate your reply.

[@10leri]

Hello, what is the perfect for sand orange peel, machine rotation or machine vibrant rotation? And how this mirka works?

[@thatdude3832]

[@Amddetailing]

Tnx friend

[@stefipower]

Great video, when u saying clean surface before sanding, do you recommend to claybar clean the paint before sanding or just good deep washing is enough?

[@Amddetailing]

that everything needs to be covered with clay to remove impurities from the coating

[@bbdetailing9123]

Another good video. Next one, please!

[@petreticu6008]

Great video, i think dry sanding is better than wet because you can instantly see if you did a good job and if it needs more work or not. Though i think this only works for flat surfaces (i mean the machine), on a bumber with a lot of curves and edges i would do it by hand so i dont oversand the square edges. I want to do my front bumper to remove the orange peel and i think i'll do it by hand exclusively because i have more control. I only have a question, do you think it would work on a water based paint? Thanks in advance

[@Amddetailing]

Yes my friend

Hello from Bulgaria, how you know u are done with sanding? And when switch 1500 to 2000 ? And i polish only with DA machine can u remove the sandmarks without they cone back after?

[@ogreunderbridge5204]

All my local market offer all over is 125mm/5 inch carpentry ones. All my suitable grits local market papers are 150mm and they only offer airhuggers with discs to fit, unless I go polishing machine. Hard to level right to surface... Could you link me a good online 150mm palm fit one at 230 VAC ?

[@AESociety]

1st song?

[@davidhaney2338]

@Amd detailing Question would I get the same results with the mirka air version. I’m sure my compressor is more than capable. It’s 80 gallon and around 16cfm @90 psi. Also I wasn’t sure about your tool work speed. At what rpm are you using thanks.

[@Amddetailing]

It can only be that the air one is much more aggressive than the electric one, so you have to sand with both 3000 and 5000 to make it easier to polish

[@davidhaney2338]

@@Amddetailing Thank you. So would I still start at 1500 then work my way up to 5000? I guess to get rid of orange peel I would need the cutting of the 1500. Just new to the kovax dry system and want to do it right the first time.

That’s a great video, good information for a newbe. Only one thing…because I’m not fully bilangual, I have to pause a lot of times to take the time to read your text. Can you just add a 2-3 more second on each text ?

Oh and also, I understand to keep the machine flat but what you do when there is a peaks or curves ?

I found with this brand, Kovax, it’s a lot easier to remove the k2000 marks because they are much more shallow and uniform vs other brands

Your vacuum looks like it not working, so why bother lining up the holes?

[@Amddetailing]

And explain how it doesn't work? If it didn't work, the whole element would be made of dust, the vacuum cleaner can't pick up dust from the paper when the paper is on the element

[@robthompson7174]

When I sand with 1000 to 1500, I hardly have any dust on the surface and I can watch the orangepeel wear down as I sand. Your vacuum seems to leave a layer of fine dust on the surface. It seems you should get a better result than that. I'm using just a cheap Shopvac.
