* Indicates most popular grits for sanding floors. 60 & 100 grit should be used in succession for proper finish. Never skip more than two grits when sanding a floor.
Example: DO NOT jump from 36 grit to 80 or 100 grit.
Always start your sanding project with the highest grit possible that will cut and level your floor. If your chosen grit will not cut the finish or level the floor, go down one grit size to complete the cut!
