Troubleshooting
Sanding disc is clogging quickly.
Reduce the sanding pressure, use a slower speed setting on your sander, or switch to a coarser grit disc if removing a large amount of material.
Sander isn't removing material efficiently.
Check the disc's grit for wear or damage. If worn, replace it with a new disc. Ensure you are using the correct sanding technique with appropriate pressure.
Disc is not staying attached to the sander.
Check that the disc is properly aligned and attached to the sander's backing pad. Ensure the hook-and-loop system is clean and undamaged. If necessary, replace the backing pad.
Leaving swirl marks or scratches.
Reduce the sanding pressure, and ensure that the sander is moving in a consistent pattern. Check the disc for any debris or damage that might be causing scratches.
