Makes Difficult Sanding Easy

When you need to sand a location that is challenging to reach, or need to uniformly sand a unique profile, choose a 3M™ Softback Sanding Sponge for its ability to conform to most any shape or reach difficult spots. The soft foam backing is more flexible than conventional paper backed sandpaper. To access tight locations, the foam backing has been made relatively thin as compared to many other sanding sponges. Use these sponges for hand-sanding applications where you need more precision and detail than you could achieve with machine-sanding methods.

Sanding Sponges for Many Applications

3M Softback Sanding Sponges are highly versatile abrasive products. The sponges have an aluminum oxide mineral coating on a foam pad with a waterproof bonding system, which allows you to use these sponges for both wet and dry sanding, Use these sponges for sanding wood, metal, fiberglass, plastic, gel coats and marine paints. These sponges are especially useful to help eliminate finger marks.
