MirkaAbranet Net Discs + Pad Saver / 6 inch/Mix-Pack / 1 of Each Grit 80, 100, 120, 150, 180, 220, 320, 400, 600 + Pad Saver/Mesh Sandpaper Sanding Disc Hook and Loop / 10 pcs / 9A-241-APRP

this is not a review of the Mirka Ceros sander, but that is what I'm using this paper on(not really paper, I guess abrasive disc is the right term). It sands great, lasts a long time, and you don't have to line up any dust collection holes with the pad. I won't be buying any other brand of paper- (there I go again) abrasive disc, I'm sold. I can pull the discs off and change grits, haven't had any trouble with getting used discs to cling to the pad. One thing I did learn from others is to get and use the pad saver- I guess any loose grit gets sucked through the disc and wears on the hooks of the pad, it's cheaper to change the pad saver (I got one in an assortment pack of discs) than to buy a new pad.

These are awesome. Based on a screen, they really don't clog like paper. They last long, and with the backing pad they work with my Festool RO150. This is great because the Festool paper has a proprietary hole pattern (harder to find and more expensive). All holes don't line up perfectly, but enough do line up to keep the work dust-free.While I like the Festool paper quite a bit, you have to buy it in 50-paks which is quite expensive when you go from 80 to 1000 grit.Get the backing pads to save the sander's pad.

Don't even ask the price, just get some and you will find that Abranet discs just work better, last longer and give results that can't be beat. Even the high grits you feel them bite and know they are doing the job and they last a long time.I use these for woodworking finishing first on the raw wood up to about 320. After applying several layers of finish sanding with 320 in between coats I go up through the grits to 600 and have a finish that really complements the wood. On some projects I use polishing pads that go up to 2000 grit if I am going for the "piano finish". 600 is perfect for an rich satin finish topped off with some quality paste wax.Try a Mirka Abranet assortment pack and see if you like them: Mirka 9A-232-APRP 5-Inch Abranet Assortment Pack, 1 Each P80 - P600, Pad Protector You may be impressed and converted like I was.

I would give these 6-stars if I could. I am amazed out how versatile they are and the durability.I used the 80-grit to knock down some goopy wet wallpaper glue / drywall mud mess and yes, under those brutal conditions the pad did clog. HOWEVER, I let everything dry solid and then with a quick soak in some dish soap and TSP and light scrub with a stiff nylon brush the pad is good as new again.I've mainly been using these for general woodworking projects and they just keep going and going...excellent product.

Great sanding and dust collection. Pad saver is great for protecting the random orbital's factory parts.

The other reviews cover most of my positive regard for these discs but I wanted to point out that sometimes these clog when sanding gummy finishes. I recently used some outdated shellac to spray a custom security door that I built from scratch and the finish had to be removed. The Festool "Brilliant 220 and 340 grit discs I tried to use pilled almost immediately when put into use. I dared not use coarser grit paper for fear of sanding through the oak veneer on the door face. I ordered the Abranet assortment seeking a solution. Yes, the abranet fine grit clogged almost immediately but I was able to soak the clogged discs in denatured alcohol, then slap the soaked discs against a piece of wood, which returned the disc to perfect condition for reuse. I repeated the sand, clog, soak, reuse process dozens of times with the same disc which required only about 2 or 3 minutes per cycle. I have not tried this with paint remover or other solvents but I believe that would also work well. I just wanted to put this information out thereas a possible solution for those facing similar disc clogging problems. By the way I am still using the disc I soaked and reused. It is in the box with my Festool RO150 and still performing.

Great alternative to standard sand paper.

Great product , a little pricy though. Perhaps the best sandpaper I have ever used. But I have started using autonet. It's much cheaper and I can't tell the difference. Especially in the higher grits.
