Default Sanding disk on lathe

In message , Bart V
writes
My lathe has been doing double duty as a disk sander. A slab of
hardwood on the face plate with a slice of MDF to provided a nice and
true flat surface. I've been using contact cement, the rubbery stuff,
to glue a sheet of sanding paper on the MDF but it's a pain changing
the paper with the glue gumming up and all. I sand small pieces of
hardwood and the surface of a hook & loop setup does not suit my
needs.
I wonder if anyone has any suggestions for a more suitable type of
glue/cement that lets go more easily when changing paper.
Thanks,
Bart.

Have you tried Spray mount or similar, the spray used for mounting
photographs. From memory there are temporary and permanent versions but
from what I remember if has good adhesion against sheer.
