Cleaning Abrasive Strips

A sandpaper cleaning stick may be used to remove deposits and help extend sandpaper life. To use, operate the sanding drum with the dust cover open.

Caution: For your own safety, always wear eye protection while performing sandpaper cleaning, and take all precautions to avoid any contact of hands, or clothing with uncovered drums. Hold the cleaning stick against the rotating drum and move it along the drum surface. It is good idea to use a shop brush or air nozzle to remove any cleaning stick crumbs from the drums before resuming sanding operations.

Cloth-backed abrasives can be cleaned by soaking in paint thinner, or mineral spirits for 20 minutes to one hour. Then use a nylon brush to remove any buildup.

Stretching Abrasive Life

Abrasive life can also be increased by removing the abrasive strip from the drum and reversing it. To do this, remove the strip and use what was the trailing end as the starting end on the left (outboard) side of the drum. Reversing the strip will provide a fresh set of cutting edges on the drum.
