Trade Associates AF44L 7 Piece Dura Block Sanding Kit

Buenos

A lot of times you see something on Amazon and you dont picture it being professional level quality, but I assure you with these, it is! You want into a professional autobody shop and ask the body techs what blocks they use, I bet you you will find them with at least a couple different durablocks. Durablock knows how to make sanding blocks, from the perfect level of density yet soft to conform to any curve, from flexible enough for any job yet solid enough to always stay true to your angle and block evenly, materials lasting a lifetime! They have all the shapes and sizes available for doing any panel or job. I have this set along with a handful of others. You can get these style which is for sticky back sandpaper, or you can get hook and loop style for velcro style sandpaper. I prefer sticky but one thing to consider, with sticky once you stick that paper on then its garbage once you pull it off so if you want to change grits but your current paper is still new, well you can see the problem where as hook and loop you can just pull off and re stick tons of times. This is a absolute MUST have for doing bodywork

This kit was great. I used every block at differnt times during my body work, high build primer, and color sanding. I would not have had the great results I achieved without this kit!

Came as advertised

I do body work and paint on boats, shooting AwlGrip and doing a lot of fiberglass work. These have made my life genuinely so much easier. They’re well worth the money, and this pack has probably all of them that you need and you can add later if necessary. Comfortable to hold, paper sticks well, all around great tools for our trade

I work on a lot of old cars and hot rods. In doing that I do quite a bit of everything involved in the process including body work. I work with several people that have been professionally employed in the auto body field. All of these people have recommended these products. These sanding blocks are nice. They are nothing fancy but they don't need to be. Previously I had been using a block of wood as a sanding block. The different shapes in this kit allow you to work in tight spaces and over curvy sheet metal. I've also used them for wet sanding and they've held up well. They aren't cheap but are worth the money.

This is a nice set for anyone who works on sanding and painting rigs, or just sanding stuff in general. I use these to sand on acoustic guitars I refinish. One thing to keep in mind - these are relatively stiff. If you're thinking these are really bendy and can be used for sanding tight bends (think sanding the waist of an acoustic guitar), think again. If thats what you're looking for, you should consider looking at their more flexible offerings. The company's website does offer the more flexible version, but this set was fine for me. Just keep it in mind if you're wanting to sand stuff where flexibility is needed.

I have never done any body work to a car previously but have some rust spots on my truck I wanted to address before it became holes in the metal. I used a right angle die grinder and 80 grit pads to grind the rust off. Primed the metal and then used body glaze to bring the body up to original paint height, it was simple to do using these blocks, these blocks worked great with the ABN adhesive paper I purchased. I also ended up using the round sanding block included to get into a curve in front of my door. They are very firm yet give just as much as they need to. I'm glad I purchased them and plan to use them in the future when restoring my Camaro.

One of the best products for professionals

Es lo qué esperaba gracias

Jederzeit wieder - Produkt als auch Händler sind super!

good quality

I just wanted to try this out. I used most of the blocks, they work well in my opinion. They are nice and firm yet a slight ability to bent as I was hoping. the sandpaper adheres well to the surface. So far, the durability is good. I am using it to sand a car for future paint and I think this will enable me to succeed.
