Well I thought I would get some input before I go spend more money on tools. I am interested in the different tools/methods used for sanding metal. Up to this point I have used a right angle grinder with the hard abrasive to grind my welds and then a flap disk to get them even smoother. Lately I have been experimanting with the 3M Roloc pads (scotchbrite) to get a smoother finish then the flap disks. I am still not sure what to do about large flat areas...? I have been told to try a jitterbug which I have, but have no paper for it. Then I have been looking into 6"DA's. This seems to be a good set up with the stickit sheets...? I tried my Porter Cable orbital with Hook/Loop paper that I would use on wood and the paper didn't last long at all on flat surface steel. I guess this leads me into what kind of paper is best for matal? I see many ads that say the paper is good for Wood & Metal.... is this really the case? Any ideas appreciated.
Thanks
