can this use for sanding wood floor?

I would not use this for sanding floors, you need to rent an orbital floor sander.

I have used it as such but since the lowest grit I could find is 80, it isn't ideal for it. Most wood floors you will want to sand using lower grit the first timet hrough.

Yes it can, in fact I have purchased a polishing kit for it but haven't tried it. But I will say that it is an excellent sander especially with the new 4 amp battery and should do a reasonable job as a polisher.

You probably could, but I wouldn't. The backer pad that comes stock with the unit is very stiff and quite flat...great for table tops, cabinet sides, planks, etc., but not for the multi-level surfaces of cars. Additionally this sander is a 6 hole vacuum unit and placing a polishing bonnet over the intake might cause the sander to overheat. Lastly the oscillation size is extremely small, great for sanding and "polishing" wood, but it might just end up burning the wax on the surface of the paint. So, I wouldn't recommend it. Hope that helps!

I have only used it for sanding but I think it would be good for polishing.

yes it should. i've used it on metal surfaces with success. i don't even think you have to sand it. try a small spot at the cabinet rear to check it out first.

We use this to clean our travertine floors. I don't think the unit rotates fast enough to sand wood floors. You would be better off renting the commercial sander from Home Depot.

The unit can be used without the sander to pick up drywall dust and other small objects. I have not tried it with my wood sander but believe it will also work with it. The unit basically picks up dust and deposits it into a bucket of water. The water catches the dust and keeps it from blowing around the area you are working in. The unit doesn't catch 100% of the dust but does a good job in catching most of it.

Yes the sanding drums can be used. Keep the speed to less than 15,000 RPM. Instruction for use cam be found on the Demel web site. Look for "Pet Nail Grooming Using a Dremel Rotary Tool" instruction. The instructions are in the download area.

I think so. It does better on rugs than hardwood or tile. I have swept sand up no problem.

You certainly can. But like using a disk sander, you can mess up the floors, gouge them out and get an uneven surface with all kinds of swirl marks. I would stick to a professional quality drum floor sander if you want quality work. If you aren't expecting too much or you want to get peeling paint down off porch steps outdoors to repaint, the Wagner disks would probably do well for you. For quality interior work, you'd be pushing the extremes of the tool.

yes you certainly can, but would not recommend using on curved surfaces, its great for flat surfaces. However this is the best sander out there.

Funny you should mention that, bc I bought this hoping to be able to sand a deck. It works wonderfully on single boards, like a railing, so it'd work great for that. That's really what it's designed for. For the actual deck though, this would take FOR EH VER, so save yourself the trouble and get a belt sander or rent a floor sander from home depot. You'll thank yourself. As for grit, for a deck I'd probably go with 80 grit sand paper

No it's not suitable for doing a floor, it is difficult to control and only gives a very light sand. You really need a industrial floor sander.

Definitely not for fine trim sanding-will not reach into small areas and you do not have great control. It also makes a great deal of dust. Best use is for relatively accessible, flat areas. You would want to watch out for grooving caused by holding the sander at too much of an angle or in one place for too long or using too much pressure.

I should think so, as long as your sander uses the "hook & loop" to adhere the sanding disk to the sander, it should work. I use a Bosch sander, not a DeWalt, but I can't imagine why it shouldn't work.

Both questions can be answered with a yes. To use it while sanding wood, you will have to rig up some kind of attachment to the sander.

I did use it for a walnut table I made. I was very happy with the result. I used it to follow wet sanding in the polishing process. It is more gentle and suited for fine polishing than my Porter Cable random orbital sander.
