• What makes these pads better for curved surfaces than normal sandpaper?

• Will they work on metal surfaces?
  Yes, they’re suitable for light metal preparation and smoothing, but avoid heavy rust removal which may require coarser abrasives.

• Do they wear out faster than standard sandpaper?

• Can they be cut to size?
  Yes, you can trim them with scissors or a knife to fit into small gaps or wrap around a sanding block.

• What’s a common decorating use for these pads?
