Customer Reviews

OK sanding attachment.
This really does work (with the small Dewalt grinder) to remove paint. Orbital sanders were giving no progess at all. I am using DW4535 sanding disks. I do sort of wonder if a larger grinder/disc would be easier for speed and avoiding the risk of wood gouging. I made a slight dent once but not after that. Watch out when the disc is new and cuts actually too fast.

Great heavy duty backing pad
Most backing pads are thin flimsy affairs of hard plastic. This one is thick, solid rubber, and is clearly a quality product. Works great with my Dewalt angle grinder and sanding discs.

Good Item, needs modification to work well
The rubber backing pad worked okay, but I had to remove the protective metal guard to have it fit adequately on the sander.
