    used bona prime classic, bona mega silk. Used 80, 100, 120. Think I should of started with a 60 tho as it was harder to clean up than the previous 2 areas. What grit do you start on?

    Just start on a high grit mate and drop down until you find one that works best for the floor. There is no determined grit to start on.

    Some floors you may have to start on 16 ! others you can start at 100. The higher the grit you start on the better providing that gives you the desired result.

    Hi, as matt says but I always say everytime once I have started mmm, should of started on a harsher grit.
    Think that's just wishfull thinking to start higher.
    I use Granwax products and can't fault them unless it's specified.
    I would of started on a 60 looking at that.
    :roll:

    Any one ever used a trio for the whole sand. I know its supposed to be a finishing machine but I think some people are using them for cleaning up too? Ive not used one on a job yet are they worth paying the extra for?

    Brilliant bit of kit, only used it on finishing, but as long as your floor is flat you should be able to use all grits with it, if your floorbaords are all over the place then don't bother with it as it will hover over the low points and won't like bumping into high boards if any.
    Lots of money to buy.. :eek:
