Where 240 Grit Fits

Use 240 grit for fine sanding primer filler and for light sanding of sealers and paint between coats. The open coating and stearate layer help keep the sheet cutting on soft, loading coatings. Use 240 after 180 or 220, then move to 320 or 400 before topcoat.

Who Uses It

Sia lists the 1948 siaflex line for automotive refinishing, aerospace finishing and interior building work. Typical materials include body filler, primer filler, paints and lacquers, GRP and composites, plastics, aluminum, steel and solid wood. Body shops, cabinet and furniture makers, painters and maintenance crews keep the Sia 0785.1011.0240 on hand for repairs, touch-ups and detail areas a machine cannot reach. Sia does not recommend this line for glass or stone.

Tips for Hand Sanding

Fold or cut the 9 x 11 sheet to fit your block or hand pad, and keep the block flat on panels so edges do not round over. Use light, even pressure and let the abrasive cut. When wet sanding, keep the surface and sheet wet and rinse often to clear the slurry. Wipe the surface clean between grits so loose particles from a coarser step do not leave stray scratches.
