MUST Have for Sanders. Interface Pads

Watch on YouTube

What happens here

For deeper profiles on moldings or other intricate designs, a hard interface pad attached to a sander provides the necessary rigidity and force to reach and sand effectively. The technique involves utilizing the 'offset' of the sander (the part of the pad that extends slightly beyond the sander's body) to work into the tight corners and valleys of the profile. This approach ensures thorough sanding without resorting to laborious hand sanding.

Goal: Discover how a hard interface pad paired with a sander can effectively sand deep profiles and moldings, leveraging the sander's 'offset' to reach difficult areas.

this is the a better profile to show it on if I want to sand this with the sander I can take this and I can actually use it to go all the way up into this right if I need it to be a little stiffer so this profile is a little bit shorter I want it to be a little stiffer I'll take a sheet good and I've got a little bit more um push into it the way I can actually get down into this deep profile right the other thing that I tell people all the time and this is not so much with the not just with the interface pads with but with the sponge don't be afraid to use that offset I do that a lot use that offset because that offset will allow you to get in here really good and close because getting down deep in here is hard yeah whether I'll do it by hand
