The unused sandpaper that hides under the clamped ends of a rubber sanding block can be quite useful for touch-up sanding and sanding in other tight spots. I used to toss the expired paper and tear up whole new sheets for this purpose, but now I just save these end scraps for the little jobs and write their grits on them. After all, they’re unused! It will stretch your sandpaper supply.
