↓ MORE DETAILS HERE ↓ ➡️ 80 grit: Use this coarse grit to sand through layers of paint or varnish. It’s perfect for initial surface prep and getting through stubborn finishes. Never use this coarse grit on bare wood or veneer. It is meant to REMOVE and could damage your piece or leave deep swirl marks. ➡️ 180 grit: Use this medium grit once the surface is bare, prepping it for the next step. It will help smooth your piece and help the paint or stain stick to the surface. Don’t go much higher than 180 grit, or your piece will be too smooth and products will have a hard time sticking to it. ➡️ 220 grit: As you apply coats of paint, use this fine grit for gentle sanding in between layers of paint. It smooths out any imperfections, which helps create a seamless, professional finish. Make sure the paint is dry before sanding. ➡️ 400 grit: This extra fine grit will smooth the surface between layers of your top coat. I suggest wrapping a piece of 400 grit sandpaper around a sanding block or sponge and hand sanding the surface. This will ensure you don’t remove too much of the top coat.
