Scotch Brite pads

[Larry R. Tysinger]

Does anyone know of a source where you can purchase brite pads that will fit a 6 or 5 inch orbit sander. I would like to purchase some white pads.

I have cut my own from the regular rectangle pads. I think it was cheaper too. They hold fine to the sander.

I just read about using the SB pads for bowl finishing. Anyone try that?

I used them under the tutelage of Big Mike, very effective too! been looking for them in the Borgs, but no luck.

I bought mine at Sam's Club. Got a huge box of them for not much money. I can't remember now since its a huge box and I don't use them quickly.

Let me check with former employer to see what kinda price I get, now that I don't work for them anymore! I can get 6x9 thru them.

Might can get other colors/grits as well, if anyone's interested.

Anyone ever try pads for floor buffers? They are available in a HUGE selection. Just a thought.

Try Klingspors - woodworking shop over on the right >>>>>>>>>>>>
They had them in many shapes at the Hickory show.

3M makes a lot of these and are generally available at most auto parts jobbers, Napa, etc.

Jerry you hit on my 'supplier'...
I used to get to take the center out of the pads used by a janitorial service. perfect circles, precut, just little effort to remove them - and permission of course.
the pros seldom used them
