Source needed, something equivalent to these Continental Abrasivemetal prep disks
http://www.bobcometal.com/bobcomall/product.asp?dept_id=2000&pf_id=HWCWCON4X5%2F8&dept =Cutting+%26+Grinding+Wheel
I bought a bunch of these disks in the very fine gray, and fine red, from Blue Collar Supply in Sacramento some years ago. I'm down to my last one which will be mostly used up by the end of the day. I decided to see if I could buy direct so I wouldn't have to make a 100 mile round trip for more. After an hour on the web, the above link is the only one I found to the disks I want. And this outfit does not list them in their catalog anymore. That page is apparently an orphan page that Google found but there are no links to it from the supplier's pages. These have a material for intents and purposes, like Scotchbrite, and they work very very well for putting a finer finish on SS than sanding disks and wear a lot longer than hook/loop abrasive pads. Well, so long as you don't catch a sharp edge. Do that and the stuff comes off like cheese in a grater.... Anyway, these were made in Taiwan and I suspect Continental was just an importer. Does anyone recognize this disk and know where I can find more, or something functionally identical? Free brewski for first valid lead, must be picked up in Grass Valley. Thanks, Jon |
