Yes, I always keep a couple pads in my bag. They have come in handy several times.

If I may ask... Where's the best place to find a variety of colors, and how long do they last compared to Abralon?


I have found the finer grits at "auto paint supply" stores.  Found some grey ones at Sherwin Williams paint.  They do a good job, seem to last long, and it's easy to tell when they are worn out.  Price is easier on the wallet, too.

Like abralon and Sia Air, water flows through them easily.  I always use lots of water in the process of resurfacing my equipment.

Walmart has a variety of colors/grit at a great price! I use them also as stated before to clean and not polish off. I use the gray and white the most. I think they last a lot longer than abralon or sia air pads with the benefit of water cleans them up with ease. Just my $.02, Bruce

I use grey and white quite often. Bought a ship-load of them off eBay about a year ago. Grey, I can get at Lowe's/Home Depot whenever I need them. I even use green when I'm going for a 500/4000 type of surface. Skid with teeth.
