Finishing Pads, also known as De-Nibbing Pads, are used to sand finishes down in between applications of finish (Oil, Paint, Varnish) to help create a much smoother finish at the end. Mirka Mirlon denibbing pads are especially designed for sanding surfaces prior to the application of finishing coats, primers or lacquers.The pads work excellently when sanding wood, plastic, metal components as well as painted surfaces where their woven structure resists clogging. Wood is a naturally porous material, and when you put oils on wood, they soak in, giving excellent liquid repellency and protection while still maintaining a natural look and feel. uk/products/rupes-ibrid-de-nibbing-discs 5463230054556 Rupes Ibrid De-Nibbing Discs 35mm (Pack of 10) 3.

There may be some benefit to adhesion, when you denib, but it will be limited and the second coat should be fine. These Flexi De Nib Pads wet and dry finished foam cleaners take all the nibs off prior to the finish coat.

Feel the rough surface, wipe across with the abrasive, feel the surface again, and if it's smooth, stop. The Finishing Pad should also be used when you have applied your last coat of finish to finish the job off feeling extra smooth.

You don't need to apply much pressure at all while you're sanding - just go over it very gently, and do it in the direction of the wood grain, unless it's MDF or something that doesn't have a wood grain ofcourse.

To which I should have added "and in the case of a wooden item, to re-flatten any grain that may have been raised during the application of the paint/varnish". This positioning, alongside our focus on sustainability and preserving the environment, resounds through all we do. I have also been told that soft sanding pads are good as well I presume these are the same as the Abranet pads?

I use 0000 (four-noughts) wire wool (that's a grade finer than John, above) for applying the wax, but you can use a pan scourer (the green or white matty things, not Brillo pads, they are too coarse). These are a 30mm abrasive veclro backed sanding block, ideal for removing small imperfections from paintwork when you need to do a small localised repair, such as a localised deep scratch or flattening back paint after a stone chip repair. I've done very little oil finishing, but with paint and varnish of any sort, on wood or metal, I find 600 grit wet n dry (maybe used wet, maybe dry, depends on the parent material) by hand wrapped around a cork block the way to go.

I don't know why I am answering a thread on Finishing, my Finishing usually leaves a lot to be desired! As I havent done this before I presume that you just run a cloth or pad of sorts over the finish gently to give the silky smooth finish? You might notice at this point that the finish looks really bad, I might look dull, dusty or kind of murky, but don’t worry about that, because the next coat of finish is going to make it look beautiful again!
