Curious??? When you do glass work, what type of sanding blocks are you using? Are you getting good results with that?

Usually I make all my blocks with any profile or angle cut in it faced with cork and then I use PSA Abrasives 3-M or Klingspor for large stuff I go with a long 48” metal file and keep a truing table (Abrasive faced straight 10’Aluminum rectangle tube) to touch up my sanding tools.

I use these on fiberglass, or automotive... anytype of surface really. And they take the abuse, by far the best blocks I have ever bought, and they come in almost any configuration for what you are doing.
