Icing a cake? We have a customer that uses a sanding block to sand level the icing on cakes.
Parrot Owner? Does your bird becomes stressed when it's time for a pedicure or beak trim? Perma-Grit's flexible sanding sheet (FXT-103) wrapped around the perch, makes an indistructable pedicure perch. They are so smart they even use it to trim their own beaks!
Did you know that Perma-Grit Tools are used in the film industry? Pinewood Studio's Model Units quickly realized their potential. Used in the creation of the following film sets:- Tomorrow Never Dies, Golden Eye, Muppet Treasure Island and Event Horizon .
Did you know Perma-Grit Tools are used by Musical Instrument makers? Perma-Grit's Sanding Blocks are excellent for dressing the necks of guitars and for sanding frets.
Keen on DIY, want some short cuts? Our small Sanding Block is excellent for rubbing down wooden skirting boards and window frames, without scratching the glass. Good for sanding and finishing off anything prior to painting. Brilliant for smoothing out and levelling plastered walls before painting or papering. Need to make a hole in plasterboard, try our small Rotary bits in your Dremel. Just too many applications to mention them all!
Do you need to take a bit off the bottom of a door? Use our F-100 Hand Tool, no need to remove the door, just slip the tool under and sand off the excess - simple.
Tiling the bathroom? Use our Saw Blades RS6, RS12 and HS12 which easily cut ceramic tiles (in fact all our tools do). Rodsaw's or the small Rotary's are good for shaping around switches, basins, pipes and the Hacksaw is great for straight cutting.
Enjoy water sports? So do Perma-Grit Tools. The Sanding Blocks come into their own once again here. Brilliant for, rubbing down boat hulls, ski's and general repairs. One good tip, if you are working on your hull over water with our Sanding Block, insert some cork or polystyrene inside the extrusion and then if you drop it overboard, it won't sink.
Dog Owner? Perma-Grits Hand Tool F-102 is excellent for filing those really tough toe nails. Apparently our R-200 is good on bunions, well that's what one of our customers said!
