Info & Guides

Rubin 2 abrasive was developed for natural wood, wood composites and veneers. Rubin has a special coating which sheds wood fibers. Use on hardwoods like oak or maple, soft woods like pine or fir, tropical woods like ebony or teak, as well as on wood-based products.

Use grits P24 to P60 for rapid removal and rough surface quality. High material removal means low surface quality. This preps surfaces for higher grits.
Use grits P80 to P120 to accomplish intermediate sanding. You will still have a fast removal rate while achieving good surface quality.
Use grits P150 to P180 for finish sanding. Remember that soft wood does not require as fine a sanded finish as hardwood. If you want to sand wood higher than P180, use Brilliant 2 from P220 to P400. Sanding higher that P180 is not recommended for stains, as they will not penetrate as readily.
Tip
Use coarser grits for faster results; avoid skipping grits for best surface quality. The wood-specific coating for the Rubin abrasives means that they are long lasting.
