which pad would I use to sand a wood floor

I don't think you can use either to sand. They are all either scrubbing or buffing. Don't think they are "rough" enough to sand.

I'm not sure, but it would NOT be the tan cleaning and polishing pads. I use them all the time for polishing and they do an excellent job for that. Plus, I think you would probably want something larger. Talk to someone in your community who rents sanding equipment. He can advise you on the kind of sanding pads you'd need to buy based on the condition of your floors.

Like the sanding pads? I picked some up at the local lowes and Home Depot before. Usually about 6 bucks. It's one of the common types of sanding pad shapes out there. Hope that helps

If you're asking about the Dremel rotary tool, yes, it can be used to sand wood, but it takes practice to learn to control and can easily gouge wood. There are probably better tools to use for sanding, so Jan is correct. If you're asking about the set of bits, B. Fleming is right. You might be better off looking at individual bits if you really think sanding with a Dremel suits your needs. A lot depends on exactly what you intend to sand.

The Festool ETS 125 EQ has a StickFix Sanding Pad. The Soft sander backing pad is sold as an accessory and is item 492280.

I am pretty sure you'd have to sand fiirst. This finish will be a lot different than the original finish. OSMO soaks in rather than sits on the surface like polyurethane. My guess is that the bruce floors are finished with polyurethane. I use this finish on all the furniture I make. It's beautiful

Not sure of the specific size but I use the standard Black and Decker mouse sander replacement pads. Just make sure they're the vented ones

You could use it to scuff sand a wood floor to over coat it, but if you are trying to remove a finish or sand bare wood you would be better off using a powered floor sander. It is better suited for drywall

I have used it as such but since the lowest grit I could find is 80, it isn't ideal for it. Most wood floors you will want to sand using lower grit the first timet hrough.

No. Would not work for sanding wood. This tool is a light weight. I was very disappointed in it.

I really don't know, but I will say this... it is ALL ABOUT THE PREP. Some of my cabinets needed sanding, some were fine with the product they provide in the box for use with the scrubbie pad. If I was going to try it on a veneer I would probably sand.

$4. This looks like pad for the floor polish. I only used this pad once, when I tried the polish on a section of my wood floor. Don't do it! While the floor cleaner is, amazing...DON'T use the polish...It will ruin your floors. If you are comparing this pad to the blue floor cleaner applicator pad.... Then that's the difference. One for the polish and one is for the floor cleaner.

It will depend on the dimensions of the piece, the smaller the end the harder to sand but the larger the easier. But the adjustable speed will help in this a lot. Hardwood or softwood won't matter

The Tan pads are for scrubbing not polishing, They have green ones that could work, but I would get a set of the felt pads and use a liquid floor cleaner/polisher product(like Bona or Bruce hard surface cleaner) with them. An interesting note on both tan and green pads one side is rougher than the other, so be sure to use the smoother side for buffing or polishing and the rougher side for cleaning and scrubbing.

The sanding attachment is in the shape of a triangle (about 3' per side); See if that would fit the needs for your job (or your corners). You can put different grades of sand paper in it and certainly sand most wooden surfaces (if that's what you are working on)

The green pad will strip the finish off your hardwood floor. It is very coarse and I used it to scrub my concrete floor in the basement after a flood. The least abrasive pad available on Amazon is the white one, but even that may be too rough. There is also a terrycloth "bonnet" that is used for polishing floors. I would try that with a non-abrasive solvent to avoid damaging the finish. Can you find out from the builder what the stuff is on the floor and Google how to remove it safely? Best of luck!

We did about a week ago. You don't need to sand down to bare wood. You have to follow the instructions for screws, nails, cracks, etc. Oh, and that really prickly feeling on bare feet went away after about a week.

i suppose if you are careful.....am assuming you are talking about an under layment wood surface, not any flooring, e.g. pine, oak, etc. I would use a sander instead.
