Mirka Abranet

[Bucks]

I’m looking into buying some of the Mirka Abranet Strips, but noticed that there seems to be 2 different styles of packaging, One a Blue box & the other a white box! Are these both exactly the same product or have I missed something?

There are several different types/grades of Abranet. The Mirka website has all the details but the two in your post just look like different packaging for standard Abranet:

Net Sanding Range

THANKS Walter, I didn’t realise there were so many differant types/grades.

It’s the white boxes I was looking at on Ebay for £12.95 a box of 50 which seems like a really good price to me! Has anyone had any experience of these?

What does it say on the box ends, do the descriptions match? A few possibilities. I buy the the cloth backed.

Can’t see the end of the boxes Peter, I’ve just ordered 5 of the white boxes 180-600g

Be interested in your views on them after you try them out.

It's what I use all the time, never tried the 180 but the others work great.

Buggered if I can find them at that price though ...

I bought a few boxes of the cloth backed and been using ever since,like everything ideal for some timbers. I shut my eyes to the price and bought them, last working with wood show I bought a metre of 600.

I wouldn’t bother. I get rhino sand paper at my local woodturning club - £10 for half a meter of 6 grits all the way to 600 and it’s magic stuff

Two different sizes of abarnet that's why different colours on boxs the white are longer

From the pic the cloth back is the top pic.

A guy at my club sells abranet by the sheet I get it from 120 through 1000 from him and would never go back to paper.
and if you happen to accidently leave it in your pocket when you put your trousers through the wash it comes out lovely!

I recently bought some abranet with Velcro backing.
Haven't had time to try them yet.
