BigGrin Hi ALL

These arrived today there the wedge and flat 280 mm sanding blocks each has a coarse and fine face on each side of the sanding block. The price can put people off these tools but when I say I expect to get 20 years use from these there cheap as chips and if you add up 20 years worth of sandpaper prices I still think these would be cheaper.

BigGrin Hi Greyhawk

These sanding tools are made of tungsten grit welded to the surface of the tool. When they say rough it will take a serious amount of wood or metal off whatever your sanding very quickly the fine is a lot more gentle but works consistently.

As for 'P' numbers why dont you contact Perma Grit and ask them as there more qualified than I to answer that question. Hope this helps.

Regards

Andy

I've got some too Martyn, and you're right well worth the money. If you want to sand a flat surface just place the block on the table and whatever your sanding ends up perfectly level. I use mine all the time. Fantastic value for money and top quality! BigGrin

BigGrin Have to agree with all your comments once you start using these tools you wonder how you managed without themCool
