Newsprint sheets are made from aluminum and are relatively inexpensive, light-weight durable and easily manipulated.
Used or damaged sheets are purchased from nearly two daily newspapers. Used sheets may require cleaning with the help of gasoline or kerosene to remove the ink, depending on future usage. A regular detergent should then be applied to remove the gasoline or kerosene from it.

Newsprint sheets are less expensive, lighter and easier to work with.
Blank newsprints are often used for wrapping lightweight items. They are also great for drawing paper, coloring sheets and paper mache projects.

Except newsprint sheets, newsprint rolls are also produced.
