Reuse an old article into new is a healthy habit. For someone on a budget there always a need to watch your financial back, thus reusing the best random orbit sander sandpaper in to a best hand sander, requires major skill.

Firstly, we should collect all the non-torn up sandpapers from old orbital sander. If they are torn then they won’t be of use.

So, here are the following steps to reuse an old sandpaper-

  1. Clean the sandpaper by soaking in water for a considerable amount of time and then removing the stuck wood particles with a metal brush.

Once this step is done, you need to dry the sandpaper.

  1. Structure it like your pads

Trace the sandpaper on Medium-density fireboard (MDF), easily available.

Sanding pads have holes to let the dust get away and not cause friction while work. Like Bosch orbital sander pad has 6 holes; Ryobi sander pad has 8 holes.

  1. Cut the shape
