Any other brands besides 3M sandpaper

[JoeyInCali]

I just found out the prices for 3M sandpapers have gone WAY up.
It's ridiculous now. And it might go up again.
You guys know of any other good brand?
Free cut and wet/dry type.
Norton ?

I like norton for wet/dry Joey, but not sure how much cheaper it is.

I'll check Norton at some local stores then.
Jeesh, $40+ for 3M packages now.
Thnx.

Ouch! that will hurt the wallet. I don't know if they have 50 packs there, but the depot carries norton in the paint area.

Thanks Jer and MT.
I'll check em out.
Mirka is about half of 3M's prices.
If theyr'e good enough for MT, they're good enough for me.

For furniture and musical instruments, I prefer the Klingspor over the Mirka.

Sand paper and varnish have gone crazy. Just paid $18 for a quart of varnish. What is going on here?
