Product Description desertcart Basics Rubber Sanding Block From the Manufacturer desertcart Basics

Review: Thumbs up - It does the job and the price is great
Review: The Good, The Bad, The Truth - Use Case: - Prep work for painting my office The Good: - Easy to attach sand paper. The sides lift up and small sharp "teeth" hold the paper in place when you clamp the side back down. - No issues with retention of sandpaper. Stays put until you want to remove it. I used it in the direction of the sandpaper and against for multiple walls and baseboards. The jaws never opened unintentionally and the paper never slipped, even with aggressive sanding. - Comfortable size to hold for flat surfaces and extended use. - Solid build quality The Bad: - Not for tighter spaces. Because of its size and shape you won't be able to use it on an English Muffin with nooks and crannies. - Limited types of angles you can sand because you get the flat bottom and you can also make use of the small front and back lip to touch up some spots but those aren't the business ends like the bottom. The Truth: - The bad points I make are just informative for this product because it's not designed to do those things. There is a correct tool for the every job and if you need to sand flat areas then this is that tool. Understand that's it's main purpose and it does it well. Price works for me as I can't see wearing through this one anytime soon so this should be a one and done.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I wonder if you can put this against a Sanding Belt to get rid of the Raised parts from the Molding/Casting ??? Manufacturer Should have fixed this.**
A: Absolutely.  I wouldn't use less than 120 grit sandpaper and don't put too much pressure on it.  Should clean up nicely.  Mine didn't have an imperfections in it. Good luck!

**Q: is the current $33 the "great price" people have mentioned ?    seems crazy high for a simple  amzn basics tool ...**
A: Seems like a high price for a basic rubber sanding block, but this looks a lot mare advanced than than the old red and black rubber blocks with four nails in it to hold the sandpaper in place.
