Questions & Answers

Is it fine on one side and medium on the other, or is it somewhere in the middle? In my opinion, both sides are the same. ?

In the description, it says fine/medium.

How do you define grit? Is it two-sided, and if so, do both sides have the same grit?

I'm not sure what grit gauge it is (120, 180, etc. ), but it's fairly coarse. I took a risk and am glad I did. The grit is on four sides, with the face and back for large areas and the narrow sides for small areas, and it's great for drywall surfacing after floating, as well as being easy to clean and reuse. It clogs the pores and is not suitable for wet sanding. I hope this has been of assistance.

Is it possible to use this to remove textured paint from a wall before repainting it?

It's designed to get the job done. It can be used to remove textured paint, but it will take a long time to do so.

Is it possible to scrub rust off of aluminum utensils?

Why yes. Why not? It's a sanding block, to be precise. As a result, like sanding wood, you'll sand(scrub) off the rust. However, because aluminum does not rust, the utensils you have there can't be aluminum. But a good scrubbing with this sanding block should bring everything back to life. Wishing you luck! Continue to be cautious. Distance between people. Hands should be washed frequently. Don't put your hand on your face.

It's fantastic
5/5

It's what I use as a memory board. It's fantastic. I use it as a nail memory board and to exfoliate my heels. I'm sure it does what it was designed to do as well.

After a few jobs, the sanding grit separates from the sandpaper
3/5

I've used a lot of these sanding sponges over the years. Although it is advertised as being able to be used wet or dry, when used wet, it does not last long. Before the sanding grit began to fall right off the sponge, I managed to sand a few large areas about 3' square. Between rinses, I was simply using plain water and no cleaning agents. It's possible that the addition of water, combined with a slight wringing of the sponge, caused this, but I believe there should have been a stronger bond. br>br>I didn't wring it out too much when rinsing sheetrock mud dust off of it. Even after a gentle clean under running water, the problem persisted. 'Would I buy it again?' br>br>'Would I recommend it to others?' Well, there aren't many options when it comes to sanding sponges, so yes. However, I can attest to the fact that if you use them dry, they last much longer. 'Dry' lasts longer, regardless of whether the medium is drywall dust or wood sanding. BUT- Wet sanding is the only option if you don't want sheetrock dust on every surface of your home. It does its job and does it well; however, it does not last long. br>br>I would buy a few of them if I had several patches to sand or a large wall of sanding to do.

It's great for small DIY projects around the house
5/5

I needed some sandpaper for around the house that wasn't too coarse. I was hoping for a sponge like this. Cleaning and replacing the old felt cushions on the inside of all my kitchen cabinets and drawers is my current project. I needed something to remove the old adhesive residue as well as small pieces of stuck felt from the doors and drawers. With a corner of this sponge, I can gently sand away the gunk from the small areas, wipe clean, and install my new silicon bumpers. It's as simple as that. I'm sure I'll be able to find a variety of uses for this sponge.

It turned out to be even better than I had hoped for
5/5

I tried to buy some from Lowe's but they fell apart after only one use. I just received these today and have already put them to the test by sanding in my family room, which I'm about to paint. I discovered that these required fewer strokes and less pressure than the ones I purchased at Lowe's, and they were also less expensive. This is an excellent product.

It didn't turn out the way I had hoped
3/5

I thought I'd found the ideal solution for my small spackle projects, but it didn't turn out to be the case. Before painting my walls, I spackled several spots and heard that a wet drywall sponge can help keep the dust at bay. In theory, it's fantastic, but it didn't work out for me as well as I had hoped. The first couple of spots were fine, but after that, it wasn't so much sand as it was wet and soggy everywhere else. It's possible that this is due to user error, but I believe I'll use a different method in the future.

Two-sided sanding tool that is both effective and simple to use! This was a huge success
5/5

I have no idea what I'm doing with the paint, but I didn't have to- It simply sanded down the lumpy drywall that we'd been staring at for months. It produced a fine mist, so wear a mask and put a sheet underneath the area to catch the fine dust!.

This is a good, low-cost product for minor repairs and for someone
5/5

This helped me repair two large holes in my wall and was very effective. I covered the two holes with a generous amount of spackle and sanded the dried spackle with this sponge. After everything was said and done, you couldn't tell anything had happened to the wall. For small repairs or if you don't want to invest in an electric sander, this is a good and affordable option.

Drywall is a great option
5/5

This is what I used for some of my most recent small drywall repairs and projects. It feels good in the hand, has a good grit, and appears to be durable. There are no complaints in this house! An angled version of this one would have been even more useful in retrospect.
