Re: Sandpaper Grades with "P". What's the point!!

Thank you for the posting.
I never purchased P sandpaper.
I didn't know of it.
So now I never will buy P sandpaper.
Good information.

Gene,
I just checked my stock of wet-or-dry purchased from my local auto paint supplier (last purchase about 1 yr. ago), and it's all "P" type paper. So, this could be a situation (again), where the customer is forced into buying what the jobber forces on the distributor. What I am annoyed at is that the retailer did not inform me of this important difference in grit sizes.
