RTF Doors

Sanding RTF doors

The right sander for sanding MDF doors that will have foil press onto the door, is the classic 1300 sander. The RTF (Rigid Thermofuse Foil) doors are normally made from MDF and a stiff foil is applied. If the MDF routed out profiles are not clean the fibers will show through the foil. So the machine customers use is the Discs sander Classic 1300 Vac for removing the loose fibers and sanding the profiles smooth.

The doors can go though the machine before the foil is press on to the door and the machine will sand the doors at 10-20 feet per minute. Special with this machine when sanding RFT doors are its ability to be more aggresive than the normal finish sander. Most of the time RTF doors require edges to be rounded a little bit so the edges do not go though the membrane when pressed. This Classic 1300 can be very aggressive in the profile and around the edges. Making it the perfect machine for sanding rtf doors.
