Did you know that an angle grinder can be used for a large variety of different DIY tasks? Most people associate this power tool with the act of cutting, something that it is very well equipped to do and is very good at. However, it can also be used for other purposes:
Sanding: A sanding disc has a plastic backing with a rough fibre padding. This turns any angle grinder into a very efficient sanding machine for any surface. This tool is not very useful for sanding the final layer, since it will leave a circular mark on the material. Paint removal: This disc is very handy for any times where you need to gently sand metal that has flecks of paint on the surface. By using one of these sponge pads, the underlying metal can be left unmarked. The downside to using these types of discs is that they wear out quickly while using them. Best used for delicate jobs. Grinding: Funnily enough, an angle grinder is also good at grinding! Grinding discs come in metal and stone varieties, and are usually 5mm thick. These types of disc are among the cheapest you can buy since they do not generally have to be super hard to grind a material. Even so, it is best to buy ones with diamond edges since they are very affordable these days, and will last a lot longer than cheaper pads!
