can you buy the lead cleaning filters separately?

You can but I just use cigarette rolling filters and squish them in there. Works a treat. 1/100th the price.

How do you u use it ? Or how does it work?

YouTube Search: Staedtler's Mars 502 Lead Pointer Tub Also watch Nate Van Dyke in his Studio ... and you'll see him use the device before he inks in his artwork. It's also just a cool video and cool artwork! All the best.

Does it sharpen a 782 Mars?

I use it to sharpen my Mars 780C 2mm mechanical pencil. I do not know if it will fit the 782 but they look very similar.

Does anyone know if this can also sharpen 2.5mm lead? Thank you

I don't know about 2.5mm lead. however, I have used it with other clutch pencils, and you have to be more careful in the pressure you use when sharpening.
