Buy sheets of every 1 grade for your project. The coarse sandpaper has 40 to 80 grit. 80-grain sandpaper should be rough enough, unless your surface has obvious defects, otherwise you will be polished. Medium sandpaper has 100 to 150 grit.

Use open coating for durability or closed coating for strength. The closed sandpaper completely covers the grain, which means it is a stronger abrasive. The open sandpaper has less particles on it, so the effect is not very good, but the extra space on the bed sheet prevents accumulation, which makes it more durable. Sand the harder surface with closed sandpaper and sand the softer surface.

 Use sandpaper to enclose your sandpaper block, sand side out, and fix with staples or glue. 
If you don't want to produce it yourself, you can also buy a sanding block at your local hardware store.
