Thread: Where can I get sticky backed sandpaper disks from ?

Jake try TheSandpaperMan from this thread, he has a website and if he hasn't got it on the site let him know via that thread and he'll let you know if he has it or can get some.

Thanks DJ. I sent him an email.

Shearers use a pressure pack spray glue to hold their discs on the big sanders that they sharpen their combs & cutters on.

I think it might be Bear brand but not sure

I have the some problem 3m will special order it from overseas took three months last timeand was a rediculous price not worth the bother. This time I will be using the spray adhesive as said above

There is a spray you can get that if you put it on one surface it is temporary, both surfaces is permanent. It is very handy in the workshop. Next time I go out I'll have a look.

Bostik make the pressure sensitive adhesive for sticking on discs.

Could get sticky discs direct from any abrasives supplier.

Thanks for all the suggestions.

I have used just regular contact adhesive for a while, and it comes off with meth. Hoping there'd be a product out there that holds the paper well enough but not so much that the paper tears when you try to take it off. Thats what happens with the adhesive I've been using. pain.

scooter when did you last buy sticky discs from a abrasives supplier, here in SA I have tried them all they no longer sell them

Fuller Spray Bond is the stuff I was on about.

There's a whole stack on GMC's Ebay store going real cheap.

We can get these discs made for you with an adhesive backing, minimum order quantity is approximately 5 discs per grit. We can quote on individual sizes if you send us a private email with your size and grit required. Lead time to get these manufactured would be about 7 working days.

Alternatively, we have a hook and loop converter with an adhesive backing on it, which you peel and put on your face plate, and then you can use hook and loop discs, of which we keep some in stock. (not yet listed on our website).

I recently bought a can of this from the local "$2" shop - in the craft section - unfortunately approx $8.50 but it seems to work well. Had W&D stuck to glass recently while flattening an oilstone.
