I recently purchased a 12 inch disc sander (subdued tool gloat:eusa_danc) and while shopping for replacement discs I realized I had a question… should I keep using the very difficult to remove stick-on adhesive backed disc or is it advantageous to switch to hook and loop discs?
I imagine that the tolerances between the rotating disc and the table may be an issue AND reduced rigidity of the disc foundation itself may create a spongy surface that could result in slight rounding on the piece edges during periods of excessive pressure.
With this being said what are the opinions and or experiences from the folks here of the pros:thumbs_up and cons:thumbs_do to using Hook and Loop versus sticky discs?:dontknow:
Thanks!
