Sanding Sponge Sheet VALLEJO 220 grit (pack of 2) for model making and surface finishing

VALLEJO Sanding Sponge Sheet 220 grit (pack of 2) is a flexible abrasive designed for precision model making and surface finishing. The foam-backed sheets conform to curved surfaces and sharp edges, enabling controlled sanding on plastic, resin and metal model parts. With a medium-fine 220 grit abrasive, these sheets are suitable for smoothing seams, removing mold lines and preparing surfaces for primer and paint without excessive material removal.

Advantages

The foam backing provides uniform contact with irregular shapes and reduces the risk of creating flat spots or gouges. The 220 grit abrasive balances cutting efficiency with surface refinement, allowing users to quickly eliminate flash while leaving a surface ready for finer sanding or priming. Packaged as two sheets, the product offers replacement or extended use for multiple small-scale projects.

Suitable for

• Smoothing seams and joints on plastic model kits
• Removing flash and mold lines from resin and metal castings
• Surface preparation prior to priming and painting
• Shaping and blending small details on miniatures and scale models

Key specifications

• Abrasion level: 220 grit (medium-fine)
• Backing: flexible foam/sponge for contour conformity
• Material compatibility: plastic, resin, metal
• Format: sheet sized for hand sanding of small parts
• Pack quantity: two sheets

How to use

Select the sanding sponge sheet and fold or crease it slightly to match the contour you need to work on. Apply gentle, even pressure and sand along the surface in smooth strokes; change direction periodically to avoid creating grooves. For seams and raised flash, start with light passes and increase pressure only if necessary. After initial sanding with the 220 grit sheet, follow with finer abrasives if a smoother finish is required before priming and painting.

Usage recommendations

Use with care on delicate details: test on an inconspicuous area before heavy sanding. Clean dust from the part between sanding steps and wear appropriate dust protection when working with plastic and resin particles.
