Out of curiosity, how does the epoxy sand compared to the wood?
|
The epoxy loads up the sandpaper, I use sanding screens on my DA...If I have it hooked to a shop vac.. it hardly loads up at all...If I'm a lazy sob.. Just pull the discs off and whack them a few times against the workbench and you're good to go..
The belt sander I just use regular belts... and when I feel the machine is not cutting as well as it should, I run the belt against a wire brush to unclog it..
Progress.. I also forgot I even had a 7in polisher and some Scotch-brite pads so I gave them a go.. that machine covered more area than my 3X21 belt sander...
You can see how the pad loads up with resin.. this was after maybe 15 minutes..
I spent about 2 hours today.. its getting there
I had both side surfaced.. if I want the epoxy to be clear I have to prep both sides..
I figure another 8 hours of sanding.. and numerous belts and sanding discs
