Are you wondering what types of auto body sand paper you need for your project?
When first starting out with auto body and paint and automotive customization, you may be a little confused of the many varieties of sand papers to choose from.
Here are the most common papers used today for auto body shaping, refining and finishing purposes.
We'll start with the most common 80 grit sand paper. With 80 grit paper you can use it for shaping your first coat of bondo, don't get me wrong, you also have the option to use the notorious 36 grit paper that cuts like a shark... but in my opinion, it's just not necessary because if you lay your bondo on thin and correctly you won't need to sand much off anyway.
After shaping with 80 grit, I like to move up to a 150 -- 220 grit paper to take out those coarse 80 grit sand scratches. And no, you don't want to prime over 80 grit paper.
Getting your work area down to a 150-220 will set your stage for primer or a guide coat. I just use my primer as my guide coat (more about this in the VIP course).

Most common Sandpaper I used the last 30 years is 40-80 (welds rust dynoglass / fibreglass ) 120 ( Feather back paint from welds and rust and Bondo) 150 is normally a Wood grit not seen in body shops 240-280 (smoothing out bondo and heavy duty 2 stage primer) 320-400 feather edging and sanding down final paint and primers for paint 400-600 dry and wet Removing runs in paint which would be followed by higher grits . Removing bad mistakes in paint and blending clearcoat on ether side of new painted panel for one long new looking paint job 800-1000 color blending 1000-1500 Removing orange peel and other imperfections and lowing grit marks left behind 2000-2500 removing scratches in the paint Stone chip edging for touch up, dust and grit marks left in the paint 3000-5000 final removal of scratches swirl marks and other These are used before rubbing compounds making the job easier for a final showroom finish ..I use 3m products in a 3 step compound, fine compound and buffing and a quick wax which my own truck had won awards

I thought this was an amazing demonstration of the versatility of various sandpaper’s and also how worn pieces can be reused as a finer sandpaper. I love the lifetime VIP auto body course because I’ve made so many mistakes over the years and now I can learn from all of your wisdom and experiments . Trial and error . Thank you ☺️ Tony . Such a wealth of information.

@stevenwilz6836 7 лет назад

I like this video it helped learn how to sand properly … a little heads up for everyone who plans on doing this. While I was doing this I had a hard time with all of the dust. I needed something to filter the air but I cannot use the typical dust mask because my safety glasses always fog up. My neighbor told me about a cool product the Air Commander Respirator. I bought it off of Amazon and it filtered the air just great without fogging my glasses. Anyway thanks for the great video now I have to start sanding the quarter panels yuck!

I have a few spots on my car that are starting to rust. After watching a lot of videos I'm thinking of going with 80, then 120, then Bondo, then 400 and just spraying with a can. I'm not looking for a pro like at the moment just something that looks good from afar. Any ideas? Suggestions? I don't have any painting equipment I'm just a dude with a garage and some free time

Hi, do you use the Euro scale grits, with the P in front of the number for all your paper? I'm new to painting and I see there seems to be two main systems, the European and American grit scale. I'm not always sure what's being used in the various videos I've seen.

@raven_fpv 10 лет назад

Very good info Tony! But say I am going to paint a whole car the same color, what grit do I start with to take off the clear and get everything smooth? I know I finish with 1500 to 2000 right before paint. I'm guessing I use 400 to 600 but figured I'd ask the expert. =D

@MrChandrabala 11 лет назад

so i was wondering after we strip the paint and primer down to metal and applied a layer of epoxy primer..how coats of primer, base coat,final color and clear do you recommend..and with what grits should i sand them at their respective stages....?

@flyurway 3 года назад

Hey Tony, in prepping for an overall repaint (BC/CC), is going over the entire car with a DA with 320# and then a gray scuff pad on a DA fine enough to apply a sealer? TIA!

@qwer01230 7 лет назад

Tony another excellent video. I have a old 2001 civic which I plan to paint single stage on bumber and hood, I do not have a fancy sander so can I manually just sand it using my hand? Thinking 320-400 grit. How many coats do u recommend ? Anything else I should be concerned with. Thank you sir

@myscreen2urs 4 года назад

I'm about to start painting a bike with enamel spray paint. Most of it is steel but the fork is aluminium. I hear and read a lot of grit suggestions before priming. The most common recommendations are 320 and 400. What I want to know is, can I just prep both the steel components and the aluminium piece with 400 grit, OR 320 grit? Or should I do the steel with the 320 and the aluminium with 400(or vice versa)? Does this matter much or is the grit range just an approximation?

@MrSebLolo 5 лет назад

Should I start 80 grit then 400 and then 600? I want to sand my rims due to they are scratched. Do you think that will be ok? The scratches are not too deep. What primer should I use? thanks

I can't seem to find the answer to my question anywhere online so hopefully someone can chime in. Can I use multi-purpose (not automotive) sandpaper to strip paint to the clearcoat on my car? I want to use a ROS electric sander with 60 or 80 grit REGULAR sandpaper, and then hand sand it with actual automotive sandpaper until it's smooth enough for filler primer and primer. Thanks

@troytipton6166 11 лет назад

I have an 83 Camaro and I am about to do a quick restoration on for a flip. The body is dead straight and has very few rust spots. I'm not interested in striping the car. Can I just sand the paint thats on the car till it's flat and do the minor body work, then spray a coat of high build primer and block sand for my finish coat of paint ?

@bjbrsperson 11 лет назад

I have a question. My brother just got a 1990 Toyota supra and the paint is in rough shape. The clear coat is fading and the hood looks likes it almost a black primer. What sand paper would you suggest using to start sanding the car down to prep it for paint?

@DaveJutsu 3 года назад

So 400 grit is basically good for sanding down your car from start to finish ? Or should you go from 320 and once you’ve finished, then go to 400 ? I’m confused

Get a full grit set with storage case n start low grit n work up to finer higher grit cus if you start with fine grit will take your forever so tart bug grit then smaller n smaller until you get your desired smoothness
