Festool sanding disc alternatives.

No Festool dealer nearby, closest is in Savannah about a 1:15 drive and they have weird hours.
Went to an auto body supply shop today in Beaufort. 3M 6” hook and loop discs have a hole pattern very similarly to Festool.
A little cheaper, and worked very well.

You won't go wrong with 3M and you may find Mirka somewhere,which is of similar quality.

mirka outperforms festool imo

Really? Ive found Festool discs to be the best so far. Never tried Mirka; guess I'll have to now....

That is my experience also, the Mirka Abranet mesh style discs last longer and perform way better

Klingspor all day everyday for every sander I own, Mirka Ceros, 4 Festools, Makitas, Boschs, etc. You can get paper to fit any hole pattern and size. They make their own net abrasives too. I mainly stick with their PS33 and PS36 papers.

Ditto on Klingspor
