A question came up about sanding and how to figure out which is the right sandpaper to use. Here's a simplified guide to the main grits of sandpaper I use for building. :D

This is great. Canvas, to me is fabric , so Im not sure if that is what you are talking about. Also, I didnt know paper bag had a number value. Great stuff to know.

Thank you! :D Yes, I meant canvas as in the fabric, but I don't know the grit number of paper bag material if it even has one. The "feels like" column is just a guide for what the sandpaper feels like in a graduated scale. To some people, the words course and fine don't help, so this was my way of explaining how the grits feel softer as the numbers get higher.
