These sanding pads seem cheap to me but I have not used them. They have grits up to 2000 would they get into the corners of work any better than traditional sandpaper?
Please share your thoughts or experiences with these products. Are they worth buying?

I have seen them Simon, but to be honest I have never used Or see the benifit of using them as you can get the standard wet and dry, sheets for far cheaper.

You can get wet and dry from local car shops (Halfords and the like) fairly cheaply.

I just see them as a "gimmick" an expensive one at that.

I have given up on most every paper now in favour of Abranet and stopping at 500. The carry over with my favourite wet and dry is pronounced and the black backing dye sheds.
