I bought the finger sanding attachment as I have a tight spot to get in but
the small sanding sheets wont stay adhered to the pad. The vibration is so
great that after a short while they come off. Seems that there isn't enough
surface area to get a good grip. Is this common or is it the way that I
using the machine?

Not used the finger sanding attachment, so can't comment specifically. I
assume its a hook and loop fastening like on the larger pads? Usually
they get a good grip as long as the backing pad has not been overheated
due to using too high a sanding pressure.

I superglue wet and dry to old sawblades with the teeth ground back.
If the grit wears out, a bit of acetone peels it off and I glue a new
one on.
