if that’s what you want to do then do it. seems pointless to me, but hey whatever.

It works but sandpaper is soo much better! just put your hand inside the jeans and gently rub on the area you want to look messy,the messier you want it the more you should rub x

Cheese graters do work but they more often than not completely shred, which may be the look you’re going for. I use a power sander set on a low setting to run over the jeans to distress them, by thinning out the denim, creating fraying, fading the color, and creating holes. Cheese graters take longer and you have less control.
