FAQs

What materials can I use SAND-LOOP FLAT on?

SAND-LOOP FLAT is suitable for plastics, resin, cured putty, and other model-making materials. It is designed for fine finishing and surface preparation.

How many grits are included in the Starter Kit?

The Starter Kit includes all four available grits: 220, 320, 400, and 600.

Can I reuse the sandpaper after it's attached to a stick?

Yes, you can reuse the sandpaper as long as the abrasive surface is effective and the adhesive still holds. Gently clean off debris between uses.

How does this differ from regular sandpaper?

SAND-LOOP FLAT uses ultra-precision technology from semiconductor manufacturing, offering superior durability, flatness, and consistency compared to conventional sandpapers.

Do I need the MINI HANDLE to use the sandpaper?

The MINI HANDLE is included in the Starter Kit for enhanced usability and control, but the sandpaper can also be attached to other standard sanding sticks or used carefully without one.

How should I store the SAND-LOOP FLAT?

Store the sandpaper sheets in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the adhesive and abrasive properties.

Troubleshooting

Sandpaper not sticking well

Ensure the sanding stick or MINI HANDLE surface is clean and dry before application. Press down firmly to ensure good adhesion.

Premature wear of abrasive

Reduce excessive pressure during sanding. Ensure you are using the correct grit for the material and stage of work. Clean debris from the surface regularly.

Adhesive residue left on tool

Gently clean the tool with a mild adhesive remover or isopropyl alcohol after removing the sandpaper sheet.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To use, peel the protective backing from the sandpaper and adhere it firmly to a suitable sanding stick or the provided MINI HANDLE. Ensure the surface of the stick or handle is clean and dry for optimal adhesion. Select the appropriate grit for your task.

Compatibility: Compatible with standard sanding sticks and the Gunprimer MINI HANDLE. It can be used on various materials common in hobby work, including plastic, resin, and cured putty.

Care: After use, gently brush off any dust or debris from the sandpaper surface. Avoid using water or solvents, as this can degrade the adhesive and abrasive material. Store the sandpaper in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. If the adhesive loses its tackiness or the abrasive surface becomes clogged, it is time to replace the sandpaper sheet.
