FAQs

What is the difference between the coarse and medium sides?

The coarse side is for faster material removal and initial shaping, while the medium side is for smoothing the surface and preparing it for finishing.

Can I use this on painted surfaces?

Yes, it can be used on painted surfaces to smooth or prepare them for a new coat, especially on detailed areas.

How do I store the sanding block?

Store in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Ensure it is clean and dry before storage.

Will this work on curved surfaces?

Absolutely. The flexibility of the foam allows it to conform to curves and contours, making it ideal for mouldings.

What are the exact dimensions of the block?

The dimensions are 90mm x 65mm x 25mm.

Can I use this for sanding drywall joints?

While it can sand, it's not the most efficient tool for large, flat drywall areas. It's best suited for smaller profiles and detailed work.

Troubleshooting

Sanding is too aggressive

Flip the block to the medium grit side or apply lighter pressure.

Block is clogging with dust

Rinse the block under water (if using dry) or use a brush to clear debris. If wet sanding, rinse frequently.

Foam is tearing

Reduce pressure or ensure the block is not being forced into sharp corners. For very sharp edges, consider a traditional sanding sheet.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent for sanding intricate shapes and profiles.
  • Dual-grit functionality saves time and effort.
  • Can be used in various conditions (wet or dry).
  • Flexible design conforms to surfaces for even abrasion.
  • Comfortable to hold and use for extended periods.

Cons

  • Foam may wear down with very aggressive use.
  • Not ideal for large, flat surfaces where a sanding pad might be faster.
  • The specific coarse/medium grit combination might not suit all finishing requirements.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Faithfull Sanding Block requires no assembly. Simply select the desired grit side (Coarse or Medium) and begin sanding. For wet sanding, dampen the block and the surface lightly.

Compatibility: This sanding block is compatible with a wide range of materials including wood, metal, and some plastics. It is particularly effective on profiled surfaces like mouldings, dado rails, and decorative trims.

Care: To maintain performance, clean the sanding block regularly. Brush off loose debris after each use. If using wet, rinse the block thoroughly and allow it to air dry completely before storing. Avoid excessive soaking or harsh chemical cleaners, which could degrade the foam or abrasive coating.
