madhattr88 Posted July 2, 2010 Report Share Posted July 2, 2010 I have an unlimited supply of 3M adhesive backed sanding discs, but I'm having trouble fining an orbital sander that accepts them. All I can find are the loop and hook models. Any suggestions???? Thanks!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC Ross Posted July 2, 2010 Report Share Posted July 2, 2010 Craigslist or this pneumatic one with this pad for PSA discs is an option if you have a good compressor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpcrash Posted July 2, 2010 Report Share Posted July 2, 2010 Hmmm.... actually, I believe Lowe's sells a hook and loop rubber pad so you can use "stickies". Also, if I remember correctly, most companies (I know Porter Cable does) offer replacement pads that will accept them regardless of sander.

Woodenspoke Posted July 3, 2010 Report Share Posted July 3, 2010 All sanders are convertible buy buying a replacement pad for PSA paper. You will not find these products at Lowe's, granger (ouch price) but at sanding specialty suppliers. Google PSA replacement pad (Manufacture name goes here). may be cheaper than buying the last granger PSA sander and you have a brand choice and can convert back. So when the glue dries out on all theat old PSA Paper you can go back to Hook and Loop sheets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
