    apologies for dredging up this old thread but i do need to add some info for future reference

    sandpaper man is selling Indasa PSA [pressure sensitive adhesive] sanding roll at $2.52 per meter for larger quantities up to a 25m roll priced at $63.00 plus freight
    the stuff from os has gone up so this makes the local stuff very attractive on several levels

    a little more info:
    i found that sellers of dura block sanding blocks [auto trade] usually sell the Indasa PSA as an accessory for Dura Block
    once I made made that connection in the dimly lit corridors of my brain i very quckly found a dura block / indasa psa supplier 5 minutes from my place [bayswater outer east melbourne]

    i went up and bought a roll [$65.00] and tested it out - this stuff is par ecellence - it craps all over the stewmac rolls [3m]
    it is well bonded and sticks well - holds up better than the 3m as well
    another nice feature is that it is exactly the right width for the stewmac radiusing tools
    but to top it all off it has the adhesive side protected with film, unlike the 3m stuff that tends to lose its stick on the end of the roll where it gets exposed to dust etc
