hook and loop sanding sheets

#1 Post by Andyknight »

I recently bought a Sanding Block from Sealey tools to prep the body of my midget. Its a Two-Handed Hook & Loop 75 x 440mm product code RE4002.

I have searched high and low but can't find anyone who supplies hook and loop backed sheets to fit it or rolls of a similar width that I could cut to length myself.

Anyone know of a supplier in the UK where I can get some please?

Thanks

I had a similar problem when I was thinking about buying an air-powered version of this sander. I didn't buy the sander in the end!

It annoys me that people will sell such items without suggesting where - and if - you can buy accessories or consumables for them.

However, the nearest sheets/rolls that I could find are at Machine Mart!

Try:

I would think a decent panel factor (Brown Bros or whoever) should stock something suitable, but didn't have time to spend to follow this up!

Frosts sell them. £4 for a pack of 10. The board itself is brilliant tool for truing up a filled repair on a panel.

They do mail order and also have a counter if you are in the Rochdale area at all.
