Here is a quick tip for cleaning sandpaper and getting it unclogged. This will have you sanding again without the expense of a new sheet of sandpaper.
When working with body fillers, especially just cutting fresh body filler that's on the panel, it's not uncommon for the sandpaper to get clogged up with the resins that kind of migrate to the top of the filler.
