Is there a source for sanding paper for sanding dishes? I've had marginal success with trimming standard paper to the concave form but want that perfect fit. I've seen dishes with paper already applied - where to they get that. |

Econabrasives.com has them too. They can pretty much make any and all sandpaper you could want, at great prices too. |

That may be cost effective but you have lots of joints to contend with. Once you use a 1 pc disk you can see the big advatage. |

Michael, I agree with John, I tried using floor sanding pads that were PSA (12x16 or something like that). I had a couple of edges that lifted and once that happens they don't go back down. When I took them off they took part of the dish with them. That wasn't too big of a deal for me as I have the ability to spin the dish again and take off a thin layer but for those that can't spin them that means a lot of filling and sanding with the hope that you can maintain the even curve. One piece is the way to go, indeed! 80 grit is all I use...and sell! Shane |

yeah for sure one piece. They are not very expensive, no joints to bump over and it's just plain easier to deal with and does a better job! |
