Its special coating helps prevent premature clogging by fine sanding residue, allowing the abrasive grain to remain active for longer and helping deliver consistent results throughout the working life of each sheet. The very fine \u003cstrong\u003eP400 grit\u003c\/strong\u003e is designed for advanced surface refinement, fine sanding of coatings and preparation ahead of subsequent finishing, polishing or recoating processes where a controlled and exceptionally fine sanding pattern is required. Granat can also be used on repair compounds, fillers, plastics, acrylic and suitable mineral materials. Each abrasive sheet measures \u003cstrong\u003e93 x 178 mm\u003c\/strong\u003e and uses Festool's convenient StickFix hook-and-loop attachment for fast, secure installation on compatible sanding pads.

class=\"definition-products\"\u003e\r\n\t\u003ch4\u003eWhat makes Granat different?\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\t\u003cp\u003eModern varnishes, clear coats, paints and fillers can produce very fine sanding dust that quickly collects between the grains of conventional abrasive paper. As the abrasive surface becomes loaded, effective cutting performance declines. Granat incorporates a special coating that helps reduce premature clogging, allowing more of the abrasive surface to remain active and providing dependable performance throughout its useful life.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\t\u003ch4\u003eWhat does P400 mean?\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\t\u003cp\u003eP400 is a very fine abrasive grit intended primarily for surface refinement and finishing preparation rather than significant stock removal. The small abrasive particles create a considerably finer scratch pattern than grades such as P180 or P240, making P400 useful where a smooth, uniform surface is required before selected finishing, coating or polishing processes.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\t\u003ch4\u003eWhen should P400 be used?\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\t\u003cp\u003eP400 should generally be used once coarse and intermediate surface preparation has already been completed. It is particularly useful for fine sanding of coatings and other suitable surfaces where remaining imperfections or sanding marks need to be reduced before subsequent finishing work.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\t\u003ch4\u003eWhy should you avoid jumping directly to P400?\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\t\u003cp\u003eA very fine abrasive is inefficient at removing deep scratches left by coarse sanding. For best results, work progressively through suitable grit grades so each stage removes the sanding pattern created by the previous abrasive. This produces a more consistent surface while extending the useful life of the fine P400 abrasive.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\t\u003ch4\u003eFine sanding of coatings\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\t\u003cp\u003eP400 can be especially useful when refining suitable varnishes and clear coats because it removes very small surface imperfections while producing a controlled scratch pattern. Always follow the recommendations of the paint, varnish or coating manufacturer when determining the final abrasive grit required before applying the next coating or polishing step.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\t\u003ch4\u003eFestool StickFix\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\t\u003cp\u003eStickFix is Festool's hook-and-loop abrasive attachment system. The sanding sheet presses directly onto the compatible sanding pad and remains securely attached during operation. When the sheet becomes worn or another grit is required, it can be peeled away and replaced quickly without clamps or separate adhesive.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\t\u003ch4\u003eDesigned for professional finishing\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\t\u003cp\u003eGranat is particularly valuable to painters and varnishers because modern coating systems can place heavy demands on conventional abrasives. Its clog-resistant characteristics and broad material compatibility also make it useful for drywall professionals, joiners and workshops working with fillers, plastics, acrylic and suitable mineral surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003c!-- Pro Tip --\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"tip-products\"\u003e\r\n  \u003ch4\u003ePro Tips\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n  \u003cul\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003eUse P400 only after deeper scratches and major imperfections have already been removed with the appropriate coarser abrasive grades.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003eFor a smooth progression, use intermediate fine grits before moving to P400 rather than making a large jump from a coarse abrasive.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003eWhen sanding clear coats or paint systems, confirm the coating manufacturer's recommended sanding grit before recoating or polishing.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003eUse light, controlled sanding pressure with P400;
