Health and Safety is always an important consideration when sanding.
Wear a dust mask when sanding. The sanding process turns the product you
are sanding into tiny particles that end up in the air. This could be
sawdust, metal dust, glass dust, plastic, chemical finishes, paint etc. The
dust mask will help provide protection from annoying and potentially harmful
substances.
Wear safety goggles. These same tiny particles flying through the air can
create serious eye damage.
If you are sanding metal and sparks are created, wear cotton (not polyester)
fabrics.
Wear safety gloves to protect your hands.
Follow the safety directions in the power tool manual.

Fisheye is often blamed on sanding, but is almost always caused by
silicon contamination. For assistance in troubleshooting fisheye problems,
