2004-04-17It will not stay on my sander. Any other brand's of paper I have used have all stayed on, but this stuff won't. I wish I had as good of luck with Mirka as every one else did on this review.
The Best

This has been the best I have used. It will outlast 3m by 2 to 1. I highly recommend it.
Mirka Rules!

Mirka paper is not only the quality choice; it is also a bargain at Amazon prices. I had previously purchased a full box of Mirka paper for my 6" sander, in the most popular grades. Have since done a lot of sanding with it. This brand of sandpaper is great. It is aluminum oxide which lasts and lasts. Additionally the backing pad is made from thick material, so it holds up well, and won't bugger the edges of your sander.
I had a body shop for twenty years, and came to realize the advantage of quality sandpaper. The cheap stuff does not hold up. You will go through a zillion sheets of paper, and will actually cost you more because of it. The Mirka paper lasts so long, that I wind up with a used stack. By the time it is to change to a different grit, the existing piece isn't worn out yet, so I keep them.
I went into Home Depot and checked out the Norton paper, I wasn't impressed. It also costs less per box, but they only give you 25 sheets instead of 50 like these Mirka boxes. So you get twice as many sheets here for only half again as much money. Not only is it a bargain up front, then the paper lasts a lot longer, not to mention the superior job it produces. You can't beat that.
This is the paper deal you want. Load up. Mirka rules.
Smiply the best....

When I bought my sander I thought the manufactures brand would be the best....... not so. A good friend suggested I try Mirka sanding disks and I am sure glad I did. I use hook and loop on 4 different sanders I own and have yet to loose a Mirka disk yet. A few others I have tried did not hold well and loaded up very easy. Nothing anyone says will prove the quality better than trying them yourself.... you will be back for more!
Great way to sand anything

This is great sand paper, well bonded and lasts a long time. The box I purchased will probably last for a couple of years. I'm using a Porter Cable sander and the paper never slips on the mount.
Sandpaper review
2006-02-26
The hardware stores all sell packages of the same grit. Getting a large assortment pack of paper was great. I also like that it has 5 holes like my sander. A lot of paper has a bunch of holes to fit multiple sanders. Mirka sandpaper always lasts longer than others.
Stays put and holds up

This paper works great on my Porter Cable sander; it stays put, and it really holds up to a lot of use. Like others, I find myself changing grit before the paper wears out, so I end up with a stack of still useable paper. Good paper, good price.
Works Great w/ My PC 333

Never had a problem with the pads staying on. My sander is just under a year old so I suspect that over the years the base pad may wear down if there are problems with the Sandpaper staying attached.
Won't stay on my Porter Cable Sander
2004-09-13
I also had problems with these staying on my Porter Cable Sander. These are the first I've had come off since I've had the sander(at least three years). I was going to order a new base but I guess I should try another brand first.
