SANDPAPER - GRIT 120

Product Information

Sandpaper with a grit measurement of 120 sits on the medium-fine end of the scale, offering versatile application in various DIY and professional projects. Coarser than higher grit ratings but finer than lower, 120-grit sandpaper effectively abrades and smoothens surfaces without causing substantial damage. One must understand the appropriate uses and role of 120-grit sandpaper to use it productively.

The 120-grit sandpaper is generally used for initial surface preparation in woodworking projects. It can remove minor imperfections or scratches from the surface and abrade the softwood and hardwood surfaces evenly to prepare them for further treatment. It can also be used as an intermediary sanding tool between finishing coats of paint or varnish. Additionally, it is effective in removing the previous finish from wooden surfaces, hence facilitating refinishing projects. The 120-grit paper strikes a balance between the coarse abrasion needed for removing old finishes or smoothing rough materials and the fine abrasion needed for surface finishing.

In the automotive industry, 120-grit sandpaper is utilised in repairing and restoring vehicles. It is primarily used to rid the vehicles' body of rust and old paint, providing a smooth and clean surface for new paint. It also aids in feathering the edges of chipped or flaking paint. This prepares the surface for body filler and primer, which adheres better to a rougher surface as created by this grit. Additionally, it can be used to sand body filler during the repair process. Sandpaper of 120 grit, owing to its medium coarseness, is extremely beneficial in a variety of tasks involving both wood and metal surfaces, making it a versatile resource.
