Spare yourself some elbow grease with time-saving multi sander from the range at Homebase. A multi sander differs from a standard sander, with removable or interchangeable plates, meaning you can sand with either triangular or rectangular sheets. This makes it easy to get into all those pesky corners, edges and other hard-to-reach places when sanding. As mentioned above, there are typically four kinds of sander. Some are more versatile and can be used for multiple jobs, while others are more specialist. Below is a short summary of the main types and how they differ from each other.
The rubber soft-grip top fits the hand well. The on/off switch is in just the right spot to be operated with one finger and it’s pretty quiet during operation. It’s good that the vibrations have been kept to a minimum as well. Sanding creates a lot of dust so it’s a good idea to look for a sander with good dust collection as not all sanders come with this feature. Typically it will come in the form of a built-in dust compartment but some can even be attached to a vacuum cleaner tube for better extraction. On the downside, the cable isn’t very long and if you want to save yourself some bother make sure to buy pre-pierced sanding sheets as the provided punch plate isn’t great. A Random Orbit Sanding base oscillates in circles but unlike other sanders, the base also spins in circles which efficiently gives a high removal rate and ultra-smooth finish. This tool is powerful enough to sand off paint on flat or curved surfaces as well as being delicate enough to prepare surfaces for a smooth finish, ready for painting.Some products may be delivered straight to your door from one of our suppliers and these products will be labelled within the product description. As with any power tool, practice makes perfect, but there are a few techniques I use to get the most out of my detail sanders: The placement of the on/off switch favours holding the sander by the rear handle. Compared with the fingertip switch on the BEW230, it’s nowhere near as easy to use. Compared with some more powerful options on my list, the 65 Watts that this sander puts out feels quite weak. It’ll get the job done but struggle with anything more than light sanding jobs.
Don’t buy this sander expecting it to come with batteries or a charger. This is a “naked” tool like more Ryobi products. There are so many of these sanders, with many different uses and price points, that its hard to know where to start! I suppose that's why they are called multi-sanders.If there is power available then a corded sander makes life simpler in many ways as you don’t need to worry about charging batteries or replacing them when they are old. You just need to deal with a cable potentially getting in the way. How much do I need to spend?
