FAQs

Common questions answered.

Five of the questions we hear most often on carpark and street linemarking gear. Full knowledge base on our FAQ page.

  • Random orbital or flat sander?

    Random orbital for swirl-free flat surface paint prep (doors, panels, cabinet) - rotation + orbit motion. Flat sander for narrow detail surfaces where the orbital pattern is wider than the work. Most painters carry both.

  • Cordless or corded?

    Cordless for site work without mains - flexibility, battery run time limits. Corded for production workshop - continuous run, lower cost per unit. Pick by where the work is done.

  • 5mm or 8mm orbit?

    5mm orbit for finer finish + better paint prep (less scratch depth). 8mm orbit for faster stock removal + heavier sanding. Most Mirka models offer both as variants - pick by the dominant work.

  • What is the warranty period for a Mirka electric sander?

    Mirka offers a comprehensive warranty for their electric sander range. All Mirka power tools come with a two-year warranty that covers defects in material and workmanship from the date of purchase. To extend this protection, you can register your tool on the MyMirka website or app within 30 days of purchase to receive an additional one -year warranty, bringing the total coverage to three years. This extended warranty is a testament to the quality and durability of Mirka products. It's important to remember that to keep your warranty valid, you must use and maintain the tool in compliance with the safety and operating instructions. By taking these simple steps, you ensure that your investment is protected and that you can rely on your Mirka tool for years to come. This commitment to customer satisfaction highlights Mirka's confidence in its engineering and manufacturing processes, providing you with peace of mind. The process for registration is straightforward, designed to be quick and user-friendly, so you can easily secure your extra year of coverage without hassle. This not only protects against unexpected issues but also reinforces the trust and relationship between the user and the brand.

  • What abrasive grit sequence should I use with electric sanders?

    Start with a coarser grit to remove material quickly, then step through finer grits for a smooth finish. For bare timber: P80 → P120 → P180. For paint preparation: P120 → P180 → P240. For topcoat finishing: P240 → P320 → P400+. Skip no more than one grit step at a time — skipping grits leaves scratch marks visible under the final coat. When using dust-free sanding systems, ensure the extraction hose is connected and the extractor bag or HEPA filter is not blocked, as blocked extraction reduces both finish quality and operator safety.
