I was just curious what folks on here use for a block for colorsanding (or wetsanding of clear) before buffing. I've almost always used the small flat 3M wetsanding blocks - I use the hard one with the texture on one side - because that's the what the guy that taught me to do this used, but it can be tricky to keep hold of the sandpaper with these. I've tried using the old fashioned rubber blocks (with the nails that hold the sandpaper in the ends that you lift up) once or twice but if memory serves I had trouble with the sandpaper backing balling up between the sandpaper and the block since with these the sandpaper moves a little between it and the block creating a little bit of friction which deteriorates the paper backing. Also it's a pain to get the sandpaper in and out of these things, which is a really bad thing since you are going thru so much of it. I've noticed there are some other blocks at the paint store that look like they could be used for this somehow, but I'm just wondering how others have approached this issue.
