I hope someone can help me. I am looking to sand acrylic/plexiglass. I’m looking for the gear to sand. It’s larger than what Dentist use and smaller than what you would use for regular woodworking. I need to be able to use grit between 1000 and 2000 and work in tight complex spaces. My guess is that it’s in the jewelry making range. Any jewelry makers out there that can lend me your wisdom?
Please boost.

@Yishay How big is the part ? You can get a long way with hand-sanding (with wet and dry paper glued to tongue depressors) and then hand-polishing with a plastic polish.

If that is not enough, a Dremel with a felt wheel and suitable plastic polish is the next step up.

@Yishay also, do you have flat surfaces you want to stay flat? They may be troublesome to sand with any small rotating tool (eg, Dremel).

@Yishay maybe try a cheap and nasty one and see how you like it?
