Product Information:

The Preppin Weapon makes it easier on your hands and arms when sanding for long periods of time. This ergonomically shaped sanding block fits so comfortably in your hand that it actually reduces fatigue. It can be used wet or dry, it's padded on the bottom, and it's made of high impact ABS plastic so it won't break when dropped. You can load as many as 4 sheets of sandpaper at one time, removing each one as the abrasive wears out – the paper quickly changes with a flip of the polished stainless steel clips. Stainless steel springs and mechanism on the inside prevent rust and there are no sharp exposed parts. Using the Preppin Weapon will also save you money because you can cut the 2-3/4" x 9" pieces from 9" x 11" sandpaper sheets.Note: Your Preppin Weapon will be shipped in one of four colors: yellow, green, red or blue.


  • Made of high-impact ABS plastic
  • A coil spring clip secures up to four sheets of sandpaper at once
  • Provides a comfortable grip for less tiresome sanding
  • Ideal for wet sanding, since the foam filled body floats
  • Made in USA

    Comments about Preppin Weapon Sanding Block :

    The rubber backing significantly expands and eventually detaches when used for more than occasional wet sanding (at least with mineral spirits). Other places do sell replacement pads (rolls).

    I was very aprehensive at the price, but after loading paper in it, using it, and putting it in my shop apron pocket, I am very pleased. Don't let the price scare you, this will be a great addition to my work shop, and should be around for a long time.

    Comments about Preppin Weapon Sanding Block :

    These things were developed for use in auto body shops. They will last forever in a wood shop. Get over the price! I bought mine one at a time. They are great. The last sanding blocks you'll ever buy. Did I mention you can use them doing body work on your car, too. They're easy to load and comfortable to use.

    Comments about Preppin Weapon Sanding Block :

    At first I balked at the [$] price tag...until I got it home and started using it.I bought one of these along with Sanding Block Item #07A06 to see which I liked best. This one wins hands down. Loading the sandpaper is a piece of cake, unlike the latter. And that is what makes all the difference. It also uses the sandpaper efficiently, also unlike the latter.I also echo what everyone else says about its comfort, it fits the hand naturally. You will be tired of sanding before your hand is.Furthermore, I have them in different colors so I can "color-code" my sandpaper (i.e. red is 100 grit, yellow is 120, etc.) that way you don't have to think about what block is what paper. Just grab the right color. You will need to buy these at the store to make this happen though.
