What's the best way to replace worn out paper on the sanding blocks?
What grade would you use for PG Urethanes?
Sorry if these are answered elsewhere
Thanks
Ed

I use 1500 to 2000 fine for PG urethanes. You can use double sided Scotch tape if you cannot find or want to buy the larger types.

I buy self-stick (peel 'em and stick 'em), disks and cut them up to fit.

any automotive wet dry sand paper is best, I been using 1500 grit and have had very good results
thin double sided tape, carpet tape and look at a scrapbooking store, they have some good thin double sided tape
hope this helps

You guys must be at the truer along time. I use 180 drywall screen and more times than not it still takes me at least an hour to cut em even. I always have 1/2 the tire barely touching and the other half cutting away.
In fact I'm doin a set now where only half the tire is sanding. Takes awhile. This is actually the norm for me, very rarely do I put a set on and it sands even.

Thanks everybody for the great info..
What grit come's on the Razor originally? - that has worked well for me so far -it's just getting a bit worn.
