Drum sander vs Random Orbit Sander
Random Orbit Sander vs Drum Sander
Which sander is correct for me? The Drum Sander is a more aggresive sander than is the random orbit sander. The random orbit sander is considered more to be a finish sander than it is a refinishing sander. However it can be used for refinishing as long as there is little finish left on the floor and you don't have bad cupping in the boards and no deep scratches or stains that you would like to remove. So in general if you are refinishing a existing floor we would suggest using the drum sander vs the random orbit sander unless you fit the criteria above. Many people are scared of the drum sander but the key is to keep the unit moving and never stop with it in one place it is actually pretty easy to use. If you are installing a new floor and just want to sand it and as long as the boards all lay pretty decent. The random orbit sander is for you. Please call us if you have any questions or concerns on which sander you should use or the operation of the sanders. I have pasted the following links so you can see the instructions or the operation of each of these sanders.
