Attn sanders/finishers: specialty tools?

 

Ok, I was a glasser/sander for three years, I was showen how to gloss, and was privy to some glossing products, but I never asked where to buy these goodies.

Specifically, I am looking for;

1. Soft, hook-n-loop, sanding pads for 5"-6" orbital sanders.

2. High grit hook-n-loop type sanding disks. (800-3000)

 I know they exist. probably in some marine industry catalogues.

Question is, could any of you give me some leads as to where to buy these products???

Online dealers would be best.

Thanks in advance for any info.

 

For the disks check Klingspor Woodworkings online catalog.

This place has been good to me:

If you are in a metropolitan area check auto body suppy shops like Finishmaster. I also have a huge abrasive supply shop in my industrial area. its about a 3k sft shop with every type of paper imaginable.
