Cheap Performax 60-9060 60 Grit Ready-To-Cut Review

This is the best way to go for this sandpaper. Much more cost effective then buying the individual stuff.

Lasts a pretty decent length of time (I haven't actually noted times on my uses) but I don't seem to got through it very fast. The finer the grit the faster I go through it. I have some 220 that I find I use faster then the 60 grit for example.

I keep the sandpaper clean with an erasure type sandpaper cleaner.

Buy the big stuff and save a bunch

Cheap Porter-Cable 740001801 4 1/2-Inch x 10yd 180 Grit Adhesive-Backed Sanding Roll Review

Let me know if there is better sand paper out there. This last soooooo much longer than Norton from HD, and provides great finish. I pair it with my favorite Porter-Cable 330 Speed-Bloc® Quarter-Sheet Finishing Sander, for twice the cost this is ten times the sander. It has no dust collection, and I hate using my other 1/4 sheet sander in the house.

Cheap Black & Decker BR300 5.2 Amp 3-Inch by 18-Inch Belt Sander with Cloth Dust Bag Review

I've had mine for a few years. I sanded paint off my 16' boat, sanded down all the corners and edges of another wooden boat I was building, and have done a lot of smaller projects and never had any trouble. I have also clamped it to a table and treated it like a bench sander. may not be safe, but the sander worked like this.
This is the only belt sander I have ever owned.
