Use a single sander for the entire process of cleaning and prepping your workpiece—these sanders move in both rotary and random orbital motion with the flip of a switch. To remove paint, rust and other materials, you’ll want to use the rotary motion. Shift to the random orbital motion to smooth and blend the surface without leaving swirl marks behind. To prevent you from accidentally bumping the switch, it’s recessed in the top of these sanders. Use with hook and loop sanding discs.

Dust-collecting sanders keep your work surface clean and reduce the amount of dust flying in the air. They also keep your sanding abrasive from getting clogged, so it will last longer. They have a self-generated vacuum built in, so you can hook them up to a portable dust collection kit (sold separately) that includes a 6 ft. long hose and reusable collection bag. Alternatively, you can hook these sanders up to a central vacuum system.
