Thumbs up [OCCRA]: May we use a sanding belt for a conveyor?

One idea by our team is to use a sanding belt for a conveyor function on their robot. But an experienced member objected saying 'the Rules Committee will say we are damaging the playing balls, and that we can't use sandpaper.'

Is that true? I get it that a design which wears out the ball by sanding would not be good, but a sanding belt also could be used without significant risk of damaging any ball.

What guidance can the team have before inspection?
