Product overview

Medium 220 grit is the middle option among the four grades in AK's sanding pad range, suited to the point where heavy reshaping gives way to evening out the surface. Once the worst of a mould line or seam has been reduced, this is the grade for bringing the surrounding area into line before finer preparation. AK calls the pad a super-flexible sanding sponge, says it resists jamming, and notes that it folds and adapts without breaking. His colour key assigns yellow to the 220 grade.

Reach for 220 grit once the largest step in a seam or filled join has already been removed.
Its role is to moderate the marks from heavier correction rather than complete the final finish.
Move to a finer abrasive when the surface is even and only the remaining scratch pattern needs attention.

Notes · Q & A

What does the grit number on a hand abrasive mean?

The number describes the fineness of the abrasive: lower numbers generally cut more aggressively, while higher numbers leave a finer scratch pattern. Start with the least aggressive grit that will remove the defect, because unnecessary coarse scratches create more work later.

Why should I work through progressively finer grits?

Each grit replaces the scratches from the previous stage with shallower marks. Jumping from a low number straight to the finest option can leave deeper lines that the finer abrasive removes only slowly.

Why choose a flexible abrasive for curved parts?

A flexible abrasive follows curved panels, rounded edges and shallow recesses more closely than a hard, flat backing. That conformability helps preserve the intended shape where a rigid tool might bridge the curve or concentrate contact on one point.

How do I know when sanding is finished?

On an opaque part, sanding is complete when the ridge or defect has gone and the remaining scratch pattern is fine enough for primer. Primer then shows whether further preparation is required. Clear parts normally continue into finer abrasive and polishing stages until the required clarity returns.
