To use a palm sander effectively for sanding projects, start by selecting the right sandpaper grit for the job. Secure the sandpaper onto the sander's base and plug in the tool. Hold the sander firmly with both hands and move it in the direction of the wood grain. Avoid applying too much pressure and let the sander do the work. Move the sander in smooth, even strokes to achieve a consistent finish. Be sure to wear safety goggles and a dust mask for protection.
