I believe he is saying that this particular grade of paper is only available

move to another grade/style of paper.


I meant that the paper is pretty aggressive it makes for fast sanding.
but it tends to leave deeper scratches then the same grit in other
papers. so on the finer grits like 220 and 320 you will get a better
look if you fish with a more standard paper then these.


I wonder if that's related to the new grading system that's coming
into vogue. I think Charlie Self wrote about it in a recent FWW
article (or was it Woodshop News?).
