What happens here

Begin by preparing the sanding equipment. Attach an interface pad to your 5-inch random orbital sander. Then, secure an 80-grit film tech sandpaper disc to the interface pad. The interface pad helps to cushion the sandpaper, allowing for more consistent contact with the surface, especially on contoured or slightly uneven areas. Ensure all connections are secure and the equipment is ready for use. This process is crucial for creating the necessary surface profile for subsequent epoxy layers.

Goal: Assemble the sander with appropriate pad and sandpaper

Tools and materials

  • 5-inch Random Orbital Sander Hekka — Sanding the epoxy floor footings
  • 80-grit Film Tech Sandpaper — Roughing up the epoxy surface for better adhesion
  • Interface Pad — Providing cushioning between the sander and sandpaper for better contouring

So I'm just using my 5-inch HECK sand sander with an interface pad and an 80 grit film to sand the footings.
