Sanding Discs 75mm >320grit
Been looking on the internet for 75mm sanding discs above 320 grit ie 400, 600, 800, 1000, 1200 and 1500.
Ubeat is out of stock and CWS only has up to 320 grit. Pops shed and sandpaper man do not have them. Is there a shortage of supply? Why aren't they available? Where can I get them?

These are AMAZING: https://woodturnerswonders.com/colle.../sanding-discs
He sells a very comprehensive set on special.
Edit: occasionally he sells these in massive packs on super special. The price is ridiculous. I see them in his newsletter, which is quite infrequent.

Try Best Abrasives for their MIRKA small disks.

Are these for turning?
You dont need anything like these high grits unless you might be thinking about polished surfaces. If you are polishing paint, CA or Poly, try using the micromesh.
These are what I use on my boxes and pens. I do these wet sanded for an outstanding finish.
You can also get some exceedingly good finishes with the Ubeat polishes. EEE Ultra Shine breaks down as you use it, its pretty amazing.The Shellawax is my favourite as is Shellawax Glow.

Have a look on the site again for their Abralon disks. How fine d you want to go? Is P4000 fine enough?

You could also look at Michael Mogy's site - Hardware and Creative Finishes at Dungog.
I particularly like his coloured coded sandpapers. He does mail order. Regards, Drillit.

Thanks for all your suggestions. I placed my order with Sandpaperman, and at the same time got some wad punches; so problem solved.

Sorry, only just saw this and too late now. For the future you might like to check out Smith and Arrow, who are also another Forum sponsor. I think there is a concession for Forum members too:

Eleven grits from 80 to 2000.
