Sanding gaps with Ekasilk 5mm course abrasive. #ekasand #deckprep #diy
What happens here
To effectively smooth rough and fuzzy edges and reach into tight cracks on wooden surfaces, select a small detail sander. The individual in the video explains they have chosen a sander that is approximately 5mm at its working edge, which allows them to precisely access the narrow gaps between boards. Before starting, ensure the appropriate grit of sanding pad is attached to the sander, suitable for the desired finish and the current condition of the wood. For rough surfaces, start with a coarser grit and progress to finer grits if a smoother finish is desired.
Goal: Choose a detail sander suitable for narrow gaps.
