Cricket Bat Repair

This sander can help smooth a cricket bat blade and work through surface marks before the next finishing step. Choose a grit appropriate to the condition of the wood, then move to finer sanding sheets for a smoother finish. Keep the sander moving and work carefully around the edges, shoulders and repaired areas to avoid removing more wood than intended.

Woodworking and Other Uses

The PROTECO is also suited to sanding wooden furniture, panels and other workshop projects. It can be used on wood, metal and plastic with sanding sheets appropriate to the material. Its 125mm pad offers a balance between covering flat areas and controlling the tool on smaller pieces.
