Worth Watching.
This is a powerful tool, take your time and learn how to use it.
Cut Your Sanding Time in Half. Cut the Dust to Zero.
This combo is worth $1,675 new. Rent it for a fraction of that and find out if it earns a permanent spot in your shop.
This is Festool's heavy-duty Rotex sander, built for aggressive material removal alongside fine finishing work. It switches between coarse rotary sanding for stripping paint, leveling surfaces, or removing heavy material, and gentle random orbit action for a smooth final finish, all in one tool.
Paired with it is the CT 16 dust extractor, which connects directly to the sander to pull dust at the source as you work. That means you can sand indoors without kicking up a mess or leaving dust floating in the air. It's a solid setup for anyone doing refinishing, restoration, or renovation work inside a home or shop where dust control actually matters.
Compact and portable, this pairing is ideal for furniture refinishing, floor prep, deck restoration, or any job where you need serious material removal without the cleanup headache afterward.
Sandpaper (consumable, not included, sold separately here)
Sandpaper is a wear item and isn't included with the rental. We recommend Festool Granat abrasives, and sell them on site so you can grab exactly what you need before you start. A few reasons Granat is worth using over generic sandpaper:
It's engineered specifically for Festool's Rotex and random orbit sanders, so the hole pattern lines up perfectly with the CT dust extractor for proper suction and dust pickup, which matters if dust-free indoor work is the whole point of this rental.
The stearate coating resists clogging, so the paper keeps cutting evenly instead of gumming up and burning your material, especially on resinous woods or painted surfaces.
Consistent grit grading means fewer swirl marks and a more predictable finish, so you spend less time chasing scratch patterns between grit changes.
It lasts longer per sheet than most generic options, so while it costs more upfront, you're not burning through as many sheets to finish the job.
Using anything other than genuine Festool abrasives can also reduce suction efficiency through the dust extractor, since off-brand papers don't always match the hole pattern precisely.
