Why I’m Switching to Mirka: A Furniture Maker’s Demo Experience
When Ben, a skilled furniture maker known for his craftsmanship, recently put Mirka tools through their paces, he was struck by how much easier and more enjoyable sanding could be....
Mirka products are a perfect match for working with epoxy, whether you’re levelling, sanding, or finishing. The high-performance abrasives cut smoothly through hardened resin with minimal clogging, keeping the surface clear for precision work. Combined with Mirka’s ergonomic sanders and reliable dust extraction, you get faster, cleaner results and a flawless finish. With less mess and more control, Mirka makes sanding epoxy easier and more efficient.
Sanding wood and resin often creates clouds of dust that clog abrasives, spoil finishes, and pose health risks. Mirka’s dust-free solution, powered by Abranet mesh abrasives and efficient dust extractors, solves this by pulling dust away through the entire surface of the disc. The result is smoother sanding, longer disc life, and less time spent cleaning.
With resin especially—where fine particles can hang in the air and stick everywhere—Mirka’s system keeps the surface clear and the workspace safe. From timber slabs to epoxy river tables, you’ll get a cleaner process, sharper visibility, and a flawless finish without the mess.
The new Mirka DEROS II and DEOS II sanders are built for efficiency and comfort, helping you work smarter, not harder. Compact and lightweight, both models are designed with ergonomics front of mind—fitting naturally in your hand to reduce fatigue during long jobs.
The DEROS II packs a powerful motor and a low-profile design for precision and control, while the DEOS II’s slim, rectangular shape makes it ideal for corners and edges. With intuitive controls, consistent performance under pressure, and Bluetooth connectivity to the myMirka app, these next-generation tools deliver professional results with less effort.
Thanks to the optimized net construction and ceramic grains, Abranet Ace offers superior cut and performance for hardwoods (such as beech and oak) and fast cutting on various solid surface materials as well as for cleaning of different industrial rollers. Abranet Ace also works excellent on primer sanding applications.
