Make light work of demanding wall and ceiling preparation with the Festool GRANAT NET D225 P100 GR NET/25 abrasive mesh discs. Engineered for professional painters, decorators, drywall installers and renovation specialists, these high-performance abrasives combine excellent material removal with Festool's innovative full-surface dust extraction technology. The result is efficient sanding, more consistent abrasive performance and cleaner working conditions when paired with a suitable Festool dust extraction system.
The P100 abrasive grade offers a practical balance between efficient material removal and controlled surface preparation. It is particularly useful for levelling plaster fillers, smoothing drywall compounds, reducing visible imperfections and preparing previously filled surfaces for subsequent sanding with finer abrasive grades. Compared with finer options such as P180 or P240, P100 provides a more assertive cutting action, making it suitable for the earlier and intermediate stages of surface preparation where noticeable irregularities still need to be corrected.
One of the outstanding advantages of GRANAT NET is its open abrasive mesh structure. Conventional perforated sanding discs generally extract dust through a predetermined pattern of holes. GRANAT NET allows sanding dust to pass through the abrasive across virtually its entire surface. This helps prevent fine plaster and filler residue from accumulating between the abrasive grains, reducing clogging and allowing the abrasive to maintain its cutting performance for longer.
The durable mesh backing also provides high tear resistance and excellent edge stability, helping the disc retain its integrity during extended sanding operations. This is particularly valuable when working across large walls, ceilings and detailed areas where consistent abrasive contact is essential for achieving an even finish.
With its generous 225mm working diameter, convenient attachment and professional 25-piece packaging, the Festool GRANAT NET P100 abrasive is an excellent choice for contractors who need dependable performance, efficient dust extraction and reliable sanding results across demanding surface preparation projects.
Festool GRANAT NET is a professional abrasive mesh range developed specifically for sanding materials that generate substantial quantities of fine dust. Its innovative open-mesh construction allows dust to be extracted across the entire abrasive surface, helping maintain high material removal capacity while reducing clogging and extending abrasive service life.
The resistant mesh construction combines excellent tear resistance with stable abrasive edges, supporting consistent sanding results even during demanding applications. The P100 version is particularly effective when smoothing plaster fillers and preparing surfaces that require more material removal than finer finishing abrasives can efficiently provide.

What Makes GRANAT NET Different from Conventional Sandpaper?
Traditional perforated sanding discs extract dust through a limited number of holes arranged in a specific pattern. GRANAT NET uses an open abrasive mesh structure that allows dust to pass through virtually the entire working surface.
This provides a major advantage when sanding plaster, filler and similar materials that release large amounts of fine dust. Instead of accumulating between the abrasive grains, much of the dust can be drawn through the mesh into a suitable extraction system.
The result is reduced clogging, more consistent sanding performance and a longer effective abrasive life. The mesh construction also offers high tear resistance and excellent edge stability, making GRANAT NET a dependable choice for professional surface preparation.
What Does P100 Grit Mean?
P100 identifies the abrasive grain size according to the recognised P-grade classification system. It is a medium-coarse sanding grade that provides greater material removal capability than finer options such as P150, P180 and P240.
This makes P100 particularly suitable for preparing surfaces that still contain small high spots, uneven filler deposits or visible irregularities requiring controlled levelling.
Although it offers a relatively assertive cutting action, P100 can also serve as an intermediate sanding stage before progressing to finer grades for improved surface refinement.
Choosing Between P80, P100, P120 and P150
P80: A coarser abrasive grade suitable for more aggressive material removal and levelling of pronounced surface irregularities.
P100: Offers an effective balance between material removal and controlled smoothing, making it useful for general plaster and filler preparation.
P120: A slightly finer grade suitable for further smoothing and reducing marks left by coarser abrasives.
P150: A moderately fine grade intended for surface refinement and preparation before subsequent finishing.
The most suitable abrasive sequence depends on the substrate, its initial condition and the final surface quality required. Progressively finer sanding is generally recommended when a particularly smooth painted finish is desired.
Why Is Full-Surface Dust Extraction Important?
Plaster, filler and drywall compounds can generate substantial quantities of very fine dust during sanding. When dust accumulates between abrasive grains, it interferes with cutting performance and may cause the abrasive to clog prematurely.
GRANAT NET addresses this challenge with an open-mesh structure that allows dust to be extracted across the sanding surface. This helps maintain a cleaner abrasive contact area, supports consistent cutting efficiency and reduces unnecessary abrasive consumption.
Effective extraction also helps reduce airborne dust and improves visibility of the work surface when the abrasive is used with a suitable dust extraction system.
Why Are Tear Resistance and Edge Stability Important?
During sanding, abrasive discs experience continuous movement, friction and contact with varying surface contours. Poor-quality abrasive backings may tear prematurely or deteriorate around their edges.
GRANAT NET incorporates a resistant mesh structure with high tear resistance and excellent edge stability. These characteristics help preserve abrasive integrity during demanding applications and support consistent sanding results, including when working close to edges and detailed areas.

Pro Tips
- Start with the correct grit: P100 is ideal when the surface requires noticeable smoothing or levelling. For heavily uneven filler deposits, a coarser grit may be more appropriate.
- Progress to finer abrasives: After sanding with P100, consider moving to P120, P150 or finer grades according to the finish required.
- Use effective dust extraction: Connect the PLANEX sander to a suitable dust extractor and ensure the extraction system is operating correctly to obtain maximum benefit from GRANAT NET.
- Avoid excessive pressure: Allow the abrasive to perform the cutting action. Applying unnecessary force can produce uneven results and accelerate abrasive wear.
- Keep the sanding head moving: Use smooth, overlapping passes to maintain an even surface and reduce the risk of localised over-sanding.
- Inspect the sanding pad: Ensure the pad is clean and in good condition before fitting a fresh abrasive disc.
- Use suitable lighting: Inspect prepared walls and ceilings under angled light to identify remaining irregularities before progressing to finer sanding.
- Replace worn abrasives: Change the mesh disc when it becomes damaged, excessively worn or noticeably less effective.
- Respect the substrate: Plaster and filler can vary in hardness. Adjust sanding pressure and abrasive selection to avoid unnecessary material removal.
How to Use
- Inspect the work surface: Ensure that plaster, filler or other suitable substrates are sufficiently cured, dry and ready for sanding.
- Prepare the sanding machine: Switch off and disconnect the Festool PLANEX sander from its power supply before handling the sanding pad or abrasive disc.
- Inspect the sanding pad: Confirm that the 225mm sanding pad is clean, undamaged and suitable for abrasive mesh discs.
- Attach the P100 abrasive: Carefully centre the GRANAT NET disc on the compatible sanding pad and press it into position.
- Connect dust extraction: Attach an appropriate dust extractor and check that the extraction hose, filter and connections are correctly fitted.
- Select suitable operating settings: Adjust the sanding speed and extraction settings according to the machine instructions and the material being processed.
- Begin sanding: Position the sanding head evenly against the surface and move it using smooth, controlled passes.
- Maintain consistent coverage: Overlap adjacent sanding passes to achieve an even surface and avoid missed areas.
- Control material removal: Apply moderate, consistent pressure and avoid remaining in one position for too long.
- Inspect progress regularly: Stop the machine periodically and examine the surface for remaining high spots, irregularities or sanding marks.
- Replace the abrasive when required: Disconnect the machine from its power supply before removing worn or damaged discs.
- Progress to finer sanding: Once the required levelling has been achieved, use an appropriate finer abrasive grade if necessary.
- Complete surface preparation: Remove residual dust and inspect the substrate before applying primer, paint or other finishing materials.
