I just want to say I am fed up with 30-minute videos that are full of irrelevant rubbish and hardly tell you anything. This is the opposite, its brief, practical and well explained - tells me just waht I need to know and demonstrates it. Thanks!

Just finished refinishing my old family dining table and was so disappointed in the end result! You just saved my project! Thanks SO much for this video! SO HELPFUL!

For those who can't find 3M rubbing pad in your country, 3M might be calling it with different name. In my country, Malaysia, they call them as 3M Scotch-Brite "hand pad". The model number would be 7445(this is the white color) and the other is 7448.

I've been doing wood working as a hobby most of my life. When I got my cordless sander, it came with pads like you have here. I never knew what they were for until now... Thanks! I learned something new.

Just what I was looking for. I’ve watched all kinds of videos but this is the first one I’ve seen that I can clearly see a difference in the appearance of the wood after each sanding application.

Thank you so much for posting this video! You literally saved my project - I painted our vanity top and no matter what method I used to apply the topcoat, I couldn’t get a smooth finish. I was contemplating using pour on epoxy when I came across your video. After receiving the supplies, I had a smooth finish in 5 minutes. Thank you!

This video is SO HELPFUL and concise. I’m working on my first furniture restoration project and this helped immensely with my finishing process. Thank you!

Cool stuff. I don't have a ro sander so I'm just buffing by hand with ultra fine pads. I'm using them between coats, buffing until the surface is white and smooth, and then wiping the dust off with a very lightly damp paper towel–seems to be working quite nicely.

My husband built me a maple table. He does a lot of woodworking but I usually do the finishing. I can't wait to try this last step on my new table top! Using Minwax matte finish but when I tried it on a scrap piece and it was beautiful! Thank you!

[laurencomstock]

I can’t wait to try that on my next project. Thank you for the
Information. I have never had a dust free environment to apply finishes so I had to live with a less than professional finish. Great video! Thanks again.

I'm a little late to this discussion, but...I have been using the Scotch pads, and particularly the grey ones and sometimes the green ones, for several years now, on my random orbit sander to get whatever degree of shine that I want for that particular piece of wood. But what I do is cut the Scotch pad to fit the sanding disc and this helps the sander from wanting to sling the Scotch pad off the sander. I also like it because I can get a shine but still have the wood look more or less natural and not have it look like a piece of plastic.

I tried this today and it worked beautifully. I couldn't believe anything I put polyurethane on would actually turn out so well! Thank you so much!

[DMM-cvfh]

AHH thank you so much! I have been making fine furniture for years. I can get to the mirror look, but it takes me so long. This is a much more efficient method. I love YouTube, insofar as learning woodworking, etc, I learn so much that makes my products better and better.

The technique works fantastically! I had just completed six coats of poly on a new 36x72 rustic dining room table. Not only did the procedure work for the poly, but I also used it in removing finishing paste wax. What a super idea, thank you.

This is a "just the facts, ma'am" type of guy, never entranced by his own voice and talking more about his accomplishments than about the work to do, an awesome fella, THANKS BUDDY!

[stevenchase]

Boom! fantastic tip! fantastic presentation! all Youtubers need to watch this and realize you don't need fancy graphics and begging for followers. you just need good information. thank you!
