STEBRUAM 100pcs 125mm sanding discs, Sanding Discs Pads

Purchased to sand back some Oak Kitchen worktops that were gifted to me – moved through 60/120/240/320 grades on about 5-6 meters of worktops, and maybe used about 3 of each discs. Held up well, good mix for the cost, and will certainly use the rest over time.

Ordered these as I liked the fact there was plenty of grit variety. Making cabinets and spraying it’s always good to work through the grits but buying the discs separately worked out expensive so this pack was ideal. Can’t comment too much about longevity as I’ve only used a few so far but seem to be on a par with DeWalt. Probably won’t use the low grits that much but always handy to have if the need arises. They stick fairly well to my DeWalt sander which in fairness probably needs a new pad anyway. Would probably buy these again when needed.

At less than 20 for over 100 assorted sanding discs, I was expecting to get through quite a few of them in order to remove the old varnish, scratches, dents and blemishes in the furniture I’m restoring, but I reckon they’re actually better than some of the big name brands!

I used an orbital sander with extraction attached, starting with the 60 grit to cut through the varnish, then progressively finer grits to work through the deeper scratches and remove the course grit sanding marks to leave a really good finish. The discs adhered to the sander pad well, didn’t clog up and lasted a surprisingly long time!

I imagine softer coatings might clog up the discs faster, but I’d advise scraping the excess off first before you begin sanding. Also use extraction if at all possible as this benefits the discs and your health. I find if you take your time and let the machine do the work, the weight of your arms to keep the sander under control is all the pressure you need.
