Does anyone know where I can buy a small amount of this sandpaper (10-15 yard spools, various grits) besides Stew Mac? I'm in NYC, but will order online as a last resort.

Thanks,
Ron M.

What grit do you need? I've bought a few rolls on ebay, and sold off excess.

You can get double sided tape from Walmart and make your own from regular sand paper.

Hi Billy and Jeffrey.

Thanks for your reply's. I should have mentioned that I'm just interested in the 3M gold.

Jeffrey, I'll check ebay.

It is 'very' good paper, cuts beautifully, hard to clog and will out last most on the market. The mylar backing of the sanding disk make them supper thin, this means they can flex quite well without shedding the grit....certainly worth the extra moe if you ask me 8-)

Cheers

I`ve tried this paper before, and was quite impressed, if not a wee bit scared of it, would love to try it again.
There is a local shop, but I fear the cost.
Anyone out there that deals in specific sizes?
