Review: Made a big difference when trying to get body filler flat - I am by no means a proffesional when it comes to body work and paint. I have been able to get almost professional results though. (apply paint, sand off, apply again until its good) When I used body filler I was getting low and high spots that were so subtle I couldn't detect them in primer and sometimes not even in the base coat. It wasn't until I applied clear that I saw them and sometimes not even right away. I discovered the term "block it out" and found out that my small sanding block and fine grit paper wasn't adequate. I bought the adhesive roll of sand paper in 80 grit. It turns out that really low grit (course) paper does a way better job of making a flat surface. Starting with fine grit will just keep the contour of the repair. They use this up and down/right and left and at diagonal angles as well. Keep the block in the same orientation and do the red lines on the British flag. In ASCII do the following patterns: / \ | -- Remember to keep the block in the same orientation. With this long and skinny block you are pulling and pushing the long edge at times. Then gradually lower the grit and continue using the block. Some people use a 'guide coat' of some type of spray paint that doesn't match the color of your body filler. When you sand it off you should see paint in the groves. (that way you know you still have sanding marks to get out) You should fully sand off the guide coat once you have it flat and smooth. Don't sand the surface finer than 600 grit. (you want maximum adhesion and primer/paint can easily fill in 600 grit sanding marks. It is hard rubber and doesn't give. You can probably find something flat to use instead but this works great if you are willing to spend a few bucks. The rolls of adhesive paper aren't terribly expensive when you consider that all sand paper is pretty expensive. (except those dollar store foam sanding blocks which work great on prep work and are grit - unknown) I did pick up sanding dust with my block before using the adhesive paper since it is so sticky it would be hard to get off otherwise. I watched a ton of videos and this brand seems to be popular with the group that knows what they are doing. I probably should have ordered the entire kit with several sizes and shapes of block. That seems like it is cheaper in the long run if you use the other sizes eventually. Review: Great tool for body work, contour shaping - For such a seemingly simple thing, an 11” length of rectangular rubber, this sanding block made all the difference when blocking my new quarter panels. The contours were so much easier to achieve with this block and using 80 grit PSA sandpaper to knock down & shape the high points, and then feather edge using 150 grit. The block is easy to grip using nitrile gloves and it has just the right amount of stiffness for panel contours. The passenger side I did not use this block and it took me more than twice as long, this block made the driver’s side much easier. I’m not a pro, I’m welding in new patch panels and doing my own bodywork to save some $$$ prior to a paint respray by a pro, but this save me a lot of time and made for professional-looking results. ## Features - Conforms to work surface - Follows curves or flat surfaces - Used worldwide, wherever professional body work is done - Uses 9" x 11" paper completely; No waste - 3/4" height x 1.375" width x 11" length ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0082LKFG8 | | Best Sellers Rank | #46,663 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #30 in Sanding Blocks | | Brand | Dura-Block | | Brand Name | Dura-Block | | Compatible Material | Metal | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 991 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00035656151455 | | Grit Number | 4400 | | Item Dimensions | 11 x 1.38 x 0.75 inches | | Item Weight | 4.54 g | | Item dimensions L x W x H | 11 x 1.38 x 0.75 inches | | Manufacturer | Dura-Block | | Model | AF4400 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Part Number | AF4400 | | UPC | 799621061896 785422648725 356561514556 035656151455 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Dura-Block - **Item Weight:** 0.07 Pounds - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 11 x 1.38 x 0.75 inches - **Number of Packs:** 1 - **UPC:** 799621061896 785422648725 356561514556 035656151455 ## Images ![Dura-Block AF4400 Black Standard Sanding Block - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61I+VSZEHjL.jpg) ![Dura-Block AF4400 Black Standard Sanding Block - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61rmx9-t8pL.jpg) ![Dura-Block AF4400 Black Standard Sanding Block - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71iMlicrHmL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: How does the sandpaper attach to the Dura-Block AF4400 Black Standard Sanding Block. Can a 9' x 11" sheet be used or do you have to buy the roll.** A: I used 9x11 sheets folded around the block, if you wet sand one sheet will last along time. **Q: Can you use sticky back velcro to use hook and loop?** A: I’ve converted all my blocks to hook and loop. Make sure they are cleaned with acetone or thinner real well, dry and them apply the loop side. A good panel adhesive or glue will help hold it even better than what comes on the hook and loop tape. **Q: Will this work to blend peeling clear coat?** A: For sharper curves and crevices with 7,000 grit wet/dry sand paper you could properly prep smaller area's of the surface for blending in clear coat. Be careful, you need a really light touch or you'll remove the paint. There are dozens of manufacturers of foam pads for polisher/sanders that are perfect for sanding polishing to perfection for blending top/clear coat. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Made a big difference when trying to get body filler flat *by M***R on August 16, 2018* I am by no means a proffesional when it comes to body work and paint.
