Ideal for hand sanding furniture and detailed woodwork, they deliver a smooth, even finish while reducing waste and sanding effort. ## Description Lasts up to 5x longer than Bosch C420 Sandpaper - Sometimes there’s no substitute for hand sanding. The problem was that conventional sanding sheets wore out fast, clogged, or broke when sanding curves and edges. The old solution was to buy a lot of sanding sheets, leading to high consumption and waste. The new solution is sanding foams using Bosch Surface Structure. The Surface Structure combines advanced bonding and surface coating techniques to fix the grains to the backing. It's so strong that the Bosch EXPERT Sanding Foam Flex Pad doesn’t lose grit when sanding around edges and corners. It also minimises clogging and dust can simply be knocked or washed off the flexible surface. It also shapes to surfaces with even pressure. Broad, extra flexible sanding sponge ideal for form-following sanding on all shapes of surface. The Bosch EXPERT Sanding Foam Flex Pad is a revolution in hand sanding. Once you’ve tried it, you won’t look back. Review: Really good - Quite fine, doesn't clog too much, great for keying surfaces before painting.
