Better than sandpaper!

By: ajwargo

These Tamiya sanding sponges are really excellent. I've purchased three grit sponges (400, 600, 1000) and find they cover the range for most of my styrene builds. They hold up to wet or dry sanding and the best part is the sponge itself will conform to irregular surfaces and reduce hot spots from uneven finger pressure. Highly recommended!

Step One

All my models prep start with a 600 grit sanding. Makes a good surface for the paint. I like the way these sponges feel.

Sanding sponge

Soft sponge works really well on irregular and curved surfaces. Abrasive lasts a long time. Can be used wet if desired. Easy to clean by running under water, squeeze out excess then allow to dry and it's like new again. Other grits available.
