How Do You Remove a Sanding Disc?

Published in Sanding Discs 1 min read

Removing a sanding disc typically involves peeling it off. If it's stuck, you can use a heat gun to loosen the adhesive.

Here's a more detailed explanation:

  • Peeling: The most common method is simply peeling the sanding disc off the sanding pad. Start at one edge and gently pull the disc away.

  • Using a Heat Gun (if needed): If the disc is difficult to remove, a heat gun can help loosen the adhesive.

    1. Apply Heat: Use the heat gun to gently warm the sanding disc. Don't hold the heat gun in one spot for too long to avoid damaging the sanding pad.
    2. Peel: While the adhesive is warm, try peeling the disc off again.

It is important to be careful when using a heat gun to prevent burns or damage to the surrounding materials.
