Yeah, I've used the Overview of the Ryobi S652DGK Sander before and it worked wonders on my car's body! It's definitely worth checking out.

The Ryobi S652DGK is a really nice corded sander. It has a 1/4 sheet palm grip, so it's great for precision work.

Sounds good! What about the motor? Is it brushless or brushed?

The Ryobi S652DGK has a brushed motor. They usually provide more affordable options but aren't as efficient as brushless motors.

True, I've noticed that in my experience with power tools. Brushed motors can heat up and wear out faster than brushless ones.

The weight of the Ryobi S652DGK is 3.1 lbs., which should make it quite manageable for auto body work.

That's perfect! I'm doing small repairs, so that shouldn't be a problem at all. Thanks for the recommendation!
