Can you get rid of fingerprints with sandpaper?
No, not permanently anyway. You can "temporarily" remove some ridge detail if you sand deep enough, but this can also cause skin nerve damage. But as the skin… cells flake off and new cells rise the detail will return (within weeks). If you sand too deep you will cause scar tissue to form and this can cause the sensitivity of your fingertips to be lost, is it worth it? You can permanently remove your fingerprints with acid, but again..you've just destroyed the dermis and everything in it, nerves, capillaries..etc. (MORE)

What is sandpaper used for?
Sandpaper is used to add a nice, smooth finish to a piece of wood or to an object made out of timber. When a fine smooth finish is required on an object's surface, d…ifferent grades of sandpaper are used to rub down the surface, starting with the coarsest grade and working through to the finest grade.
