Achieve smooth and consistent surface preparation with Festool Granat STF 115x228 P180 abrasive sheets. Developed for professional sanding applications, Granat performs particularly well on modern VOC coatings, hard substrates, varnishes, fillers and repair compounds. Its special coating helps prevent premature clogging and supports a long service life. The P180 grit offers an excellent balance between surface refinement and efficient material removal, making it ideal for intermediate sanding between coating stages. Festool StickFix attachment enables quick, secure fitting and convenient abrasive changes.
Festool Granat is a professional universal abrasive developed for demanding coatings and substrates. This P180 variant is well suited to refining previously sanded surfaces, smoothing fillers and preparing varnishes or coatings before progressing to finer finishing stages.

Pro Tips
- Use light, even pressure to achieve a consistent P180 scratch pattern and minimise heat build-up.
- Remove sanding dust before progressing to a finer grit so loose particles do not create deeper scratches.
- Test the abrasive on an inconspicuous area before sanding delicate plastics, acrylics or finished surfaces.
- Connect a compatible dust extractor during machine sanding to improve visibility, cleanliness and abrasive performance.
- Store unused abrasive sheets flat in a clean, dry location to protect the abrasive surface and StickFix backing.
How to Use
- Switch off and disconnect the sander before fitting the abrasive sheet.
- Confirm that the sanding pad is clean, undamaged and compatible with the 115 x 228 mm abrasive.
- Position the sheet correctly on the sanding pad and press the StickFix surfaces together securely.
- Connect a suitable dust extractor when permitted by the tool and application.
- Place the sanding surface flat against the workpiece and begin sanding with controlled, overlapping passes.
- Apply light, even pressure and avoid holding the operating sander in one position.
- Inspect the surface regularly and replace the abrasive when its cutting performance declines.
