Product Information
Full details
The Magnusson Sanding Roll (240 Grit) is an essential tool for DIYers and professional decorators who need a high-quality abrasive for finishing tasks on plaster and filler surfaces. Its primary benefit is a consistent, aggressive cut that remains clog-free, allowing for faster sanding cycles, though it is specifically optimized for finer finishes rather than heavy paint stripping or wood stock removal.

FAQs
Can I use this on wood?
While it is optimized for plaster and filler, the 240 grit can be used for light sanding between coats of wood varnish or paint.
How do I cut the roll safely?
Use a sharp utility knife or heavy-duty scissors to cut the backing material to the desired size.
Is this waterproof?
No, this sanding roll is intended for dry sanding applications only.
What is the primary advantage of 240 grit?
240 grit is considered a 'fine' grade, making it perfect for the final sanding stage before applying a topcoat or paint.
Can I use this with a power sander?
No, this product is designed for manual hand-sanding use.
Troubleshooting
Abrasive is filling up with dust quickly
Tap the paper against a clean surface to remove debris or decrease the pressure applied during the sanding stroke.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the life of your Magnusson Sanding Roll, always use a sanding block to distribute pressure evenly across the paper. This prevents finger-indentations and ensures a flatter, more professional finish.
- Compatibility: Best used by hand or with a manual hand-sanding block. Avoid using with electric orbital sanders as the flexible backing is not intended for high-speed friction.
- Storage: Store the roll in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture from damaging the abrasive bond.
- Maintenance: While the paper is anti-clogging, periodically tap it against a hard surface to dislodge excess dust trapped in the grit.
