Every order helps keep your local hardware store on the corner.

Why we built NHG
You might find it for less locally. Independent retailers often offer competitive pricing — some products are even cheaper in-store than online.
Real expert advice — not search results. Independent hardware staff know their inventory and the local conditions you're working in.
Keep the neighborhood working. Every dollar spent at an independent retailer returns roughly 3x more to your local economy than at a national chain.

About Product Overview

Meet the Dico Sand Prep Stick — a stearic wax belt lubricant designed to optimize sanding performance when using abrasive belts. Measuring 7.25 inches long by 3.5 inches wide, this solid lubricant stays within reach for fast, on-the-spot lubrication across automotive, industrial, woodworking, and DIY sanding tasks.

Key benefits you’ll notice with the Sand Prep Abrasive Belt Lubricant:

  • Targeted belt lubrication: Apply a thin line along the belt’s contact surface to prevent loading and glazing, helping your belt cut cleanly from start to finish.
  • Stearic wax formula: A durable, solid wax that stays where you put it, reducing mess and overspray compared to spray lubricants.
  • Better heat management: By minimizing heat buildup at the belt, you maintain a consistent feed and finish, whether you’re smoothing automotive panels or shaping woodworking stock.
  • Longevity and efficiency: Less belt wear means fewer belt changes and less downtime on busy jobs—great for shop workflows and DIY projects alike.
  • Versatile application: Designed for automotive bodywork, industrial sanding, woodworking projects, and general DIY tasks, fitting flat surfaces, curves, and contour work with ease.

How to use for best results

Ensure the belt and work area are clean and dry. Rub the Sand Prep Stick along the belt surface before you begin sanding to lay down a thin lubrication film. If you notice loading or increased heat during use, reapply sparingly. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the stick’s performance.

Their Counter
Try local first · we'll wait

The stores we send you to are local and independently run — often for generations, the kind of place where someone behind the counter knows the regulars. We don't own them. We just think they deserve the foot traffic. They can put most of what we sell on their next truck. Ask there before you check out here.

About our directory. National Hardware Group is an independent retailer and directory. The local stores we list and link to are separately owned and operated — we have no ownership stake in any of them, and most pay us nothing to be included. That includes plenty of stores flying a co-op banner that people don't realize are locally owned and run, not operated by a corporation. Store owners can choose to upgrade their listing for an enhanced presence or pickup features, but the base directory is free, and inclusion is never a paid endorsement.
