I use the sanding blocks for metal clean up and polish as well as wood sanding. Great selection of grits for all project needs.

I like them, but don't buy the claims of last 5x as long
I use these and the regular sanding sponges often. I don't know if I get the 5x longer life or whatever they claim. Sometimes I feel like more of the regular ones for the same or cheaper price is better value.

Did the job well.
This 80 grit paper worked well to smooth some new cedar fascia on the house prior to priming the surface. It cleaned the wood well, making the primer adhere quickly and easily.
After priming, the facia was stained and I was satisfied with the result.

works well. for about an hour
these sanding blocks lose their grit rather easily, but I will admit I have not found any better in years. Sadly I have some that are 10 years old and still have retained their ability to sand, while anything I have bought in the past 5 years are quickly useless.

Easiest drywall repair ever
Everything I needed for a professional looking repair was in the kit. It took no time at all and my husband was completely surprised that I fixed the hole and it looked better than his work.

Refinishing project
Sponge worked as advertised but didn't last as long as I had expected. Ended up buying regular old sandpaper to complete the job

Great for Sanding Contours
I needed something that would allow me to sand a contoured surface and this allowed me to do so. It is nice to have something to grab onto and yet is flexible enough to mold to the contour of what you are sanding.

Not bad
The paper gets full of dust quickly and is difficult to clean or remove to continue sanding with any steady success. Otherwise it is a nice tool to have for the job.

A very good product
These sanding sponges were used on spackled nail holes on curved moldings, which formed to the shape and left a very smooth surface. My only advice would be purchase extras, because they never stay where you put them down. Tools move when you're not looking.

Sanding Block Review
The sanding block provided me with quick and efficient sanding ability. With simple tapping or cleaning the sponge was ready to reuse. It works best for fine sanding or when more detail is needed. A power sander is faster but much to powerful for intricate details.

Wears out rather quickly. Doesn't bend easily
Used these blocks for the middle step on refinishing grooves on woodwork. The sponges wore out rather quickly and I had to revert to sand paper. The sponges didn't bend as easily as I thought they would to sand the grooves. Might work better for a different application.

It gets the job done.
It is a good sturdy product that accomplishes the task at hand. Decently priced and durable. It was really the staff at the store that was awesome. They were knowledgeable, helpful, and nice. The Home Depot in Panama City is super awesome.
