ABSTRACT:
A surface leveling tool for sanding wooden, painted and plastic surfaces without gouging. The tool comprises a handle of variable length attached to a head with a clamping element which holds a flexible plastic sandpaper insert. A specially formatted sandpaper sheet is adhered to the flexible plastic insert. The plastic insert has a cross-section analogous to a J-shape and is clamped only by the hooked portion. This arrangement provides for space between the unclamped portion of the sandpaper covered insert and the clamp. The clamp utilizes fasteners which are tightened. and loosened by a hidden screwdriver in the grip of the handle.
