I bought a micromesh kit when I first started out to try it out. So far I really like micromesh, the abrasives lasts a long time and its a lot more flexible even when new, meaning you can sand curves easily. However there comes a time where I must replace some of its abrasives (its not indestructible) but the usual (stewmac, LMI) only sells kits. I find that I use 1500, 1800, and 2400 and no more because I hate wet sanding forever (it introduces the risk of damaging wood due to water), and after that I just hit it with Menzerna. So is there anywhere I can just buy those 3 grits individually?
