SANDING CUTS AND SANDPAPER Initial Cut The purpose of the initial cut is to remove old finish and gross imperfections on the floor surface. A coarse abrasive should be used. If glazing, loading, or burning takes place immediately into an initial cut, select a coarser abrasive. If this should occur during an initial cut, the abrasive has dulled and must be replaced. Final Cuts The purpose of a finishing cut is to remove the scratches produced during the initial cut. Use a fine (60 - 80 grit) grain abrasive.
