Product Information
Full details
The Magnusson Sanding Roll (120 Grit) is an essential abrasive tool designed for DIY enthusiasts and trade professionals needing reliable surface preparation. Its primary strength lies in its versatility and consistent 120-grit finish, which is ideal for smoothing wood, paint, or metal surfaces before final finishing. While it offers excellent value for general sanding tasks, users should note that as a manual sanding roll, it requires physical effort for large surface areas compared to power-sanding alternatives.

FAQs
Can I use this for wet sanding?
This product is primarily designed for dry sanding. Using it with water may damage the paper backing.
Is this grit suitable for removing deep scratches?
120 grit is a medium-fine finish. For deep scratches, you may need a coarser grit (e.g., 60 or 80) first before finishing with the 120 grit.
How do I cut the roll cleanly?
Place the paper face down and use a sharp utility knife against a straight edge for a clean, professional cut.
Does this work on metal?
Yes, it is effective for removing light rust or preparing metal surfaces for painting.
Can this be used with an orbital sander?
No, this is intended for hand sanding. It lacks the specific dimensions and backing type required for machine sanders.
Troubleshooting
Sanding paper is clogging quickly
Tap the paper against a hard surface to dislodge dust or use a sanding cleaning block.
Paper tearing during use
Ensure you are using a sanding block; direct hand pressure on sharp edges can cause localized tearing.
Poor sanding results
Ensure the sanding direction is with the grain of the wood to prevent deep scratches.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup for this product is simple: measure the length required for your specific sanding block or project and cut with a sturdy utility knife or shears. To maintain the life of your sanding roll, store it in a dry, moisture-free environment; humidity can degrade the bonding agent and cause the grit to shed prematurely. Avoid excessive folding of the paper in the same spot, as this can cause the backing to crack. When cleaning dust off the roll, use a soft brush to prevent the abrasive particles from becoming embedded with debris.
