    I to am a knife and pan person, for 25 years now, have you tried wet sanding at all? I tried it on a kitchen remodel in which the owners could not move out during construction, basically used scotch Brite pads and water, sanded like a champ and no dust, almost had a plaster like finish when done.

    I have left old sanding paper on sanding poles and put new paper on over the old ones to pad and cushion the new paper.

    Porter Cable makes a good electric sander. It's longer,easier to sand ceilings. I hook the hose to a big shop vac.

    Hi there just wondering for a level 4 finish finish. Would you start out with 150 grit and finish with 220 or 240. Would you get away with these 2 papers. For level 5, you would finish your final coat with 300 grit. Please advise.

    Great presentation Lydia! Knowing you are suggesting foam backed papers I will guess that you are not a fan of a) non-backed paper and b) wire mesh paper. Am I correct?

    I wish there were specific product recommendations. And perhaps this was a missed opportunity to put some Amazon affiliate links in the description box. I recognize some of the products but cannot find the padded sanding paper shown at 1:31 or the rectangular head.

    Im a bathroom remodeler and don’t do a lot of drywall, and when I do it’s just a bathrooms worth so I’ve been using hand tools. Last time I did drywall I tried using a 5” orbital sander hooked up to my HEPA vacuum with pleasant results. Do you ever use an orbital sander and can you recommend a soft foam backer or foam backed paper to use with an orbital sander?

    I’ve never used one - but you could try buying a sanding pad and cutting it down to fit on the orbital sander?

    Hi Ashlyn! Thank you! I would suggest removing as much dust as possible before painting. You can do that with a barely damp sponge or a very soft dusting mop.
