Dura-Block AF4403 16.5 Inch Full Size Sanding Block

Remember the big eraser that made a lot of the kids had at school envious? Well, this is its grown-up relative. Not that it’s a good idea to brag about your tools and supplies to neighbors or coworkers, it’s just a lot nicer to have on hand what you need to get a job done right. Some projects and phases call for round or belt sanders, but when a part of a job requires detailed manual treatment, the Dura Block should be in your arsenal. This 16.5 full size sanding block works particularly well for larger areas, such as fenders, quarter panels, hoods and roofs. Its light weight and large size also makes it suitable for stripping paint from truck bodies. It can be used for grinding surfaces off components on a shop table or in-place right on the body of an automobile or motorcycle. Its flexible shape gives you options in regards to how and where to use it, while the material itself is rigid enough to stick close to a surface that needs serious grinding. If you want a flat outcome, you need a Dura Block. Its dimensions give you the flexibility to use one or both hands while you use it. It was designed with ergonomics in mind, which can be seen by the inset area where you can comfortably and safely rest your fingers while working. Its quality is attested to the fact that it’s commonly used on restoration projects for show cars. Beyond the body shop, the Dura Block is used on boats, airplanes and other projects. This sanding block has been on the market for a while and continues to be a top seller. It stores well and can be used in just about any type of weather. Gloves and safety glasses are recommended during use. As an artist keeps different sizes of paintbrushes available, a good collection of various sizes and shapes of sanding blocks is a must for any automotive enthusiast or body shop professional.
