A Drywall Sander is a specialized power tool designed to smooth and level drywall surfaces by removing excess joint compound, paint, and uneven textures. Equipped with a circular sanding head and often an extendable handle, it allows users to reach ceilings and high walls effortlessly. Many modern drywall sanders also feature built-in dust extraction systems to keep the work area clean. These tools are essential for professional painters, builders, and contractors who need a flawless surface finish before painting or plastering.
