Because they do not use the vac, I have not used them yet. I have not

As far as paper lasting longer because of the vac, that is true. The
Rubin, which I used to use, lasted longer than 3M and PC branded paper
with out a vac. But the Granat trumps the Rubin many times over in
longevity with the vac.


I'm a big fan of the Granat papers. Do the sanding pads come in a systainer?

I read that the grit is a hybrid of standard aluminum oxide and ceramic
abrasives. Compared to my Norton 3x, they seem to be about a 5x.
