Product Information
Full details
The Magnusson Sanding Roll is designed for DIYers and woodworkers who need a versatile, long-lasting abrasive for heavy material removal. It excels at smoothing plaster, painted wood, and softwood surfaces with high consistency, though its 80-grit coarseness makes it unsuitable for fine-finish sanding tasks.

FAQs
Can I use this on metal surfaces?
This product is specifically designed for plaster, painted wood, and softwood. Using it on metal may cause the abrasive to dull rapidly.
Is this paper self-adhesive?
No, this is a standard sanding roll and does not feature a hook-and-loop or self-adhesive backing.
How do I know if 80-grit is right for me?
80-grit is considered a medium-to-coarse grit. It is perfect for stripping paint or removing heavy imperfections before finishing with a finer grit like 120 or 180.
Can I wash the sanding roll?
No, this product should be kept dry. Washing it will destroy the paper backing.
Can this be used with an electric sander?
Yes, provided your sander uses a mechanical clamp system to hold the abrasive strip in place.
Troubleshooting
The paper is clogging quickly
Ensure you are applying light pressure and tapping the block against the surface occasionally to clear dust; if clogging persists, the material being sanded may have high moisture or resin content.
Tearing during use
Ensure the sanding block edges are not overly sharp or pointed; wrap the paper securely to prevent excess movement.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Resistant to clogging thanks to the open coat design
- Durable abrasive grain maintains consistency over time
- Highly flexible material for contour sanding
- Ideal for stripping paint and prepping raw softwood
Cons
- Not suitable for final polishing or finishing
- Coarse grit can create deep scratches if used too aggressively
- Requires manual effort or a block to use effectively
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up, simply tear the required length from the 5-meter roll. This paper is compatible with standard hand-held sanding blocks and can be cut to fit various mechanical sanding machines that accept non-adhesive strips. To care for your sanding roll, store it in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture damage to the backing. Keep the paper free from oil or grease, as these contaminants can reduce the effectiveness of the abrasive.
