I just plunked down a good chunk of change on a bunch of Festool brand abrasives. I'm going to be resurfacing a Corian counter and could only buy the appropriate grits in packs of 100. I'm wondering, is anyone else is making 6" discs for the Festool Rotex sanders?

I believe that Klingspoor does but I am not sure of the number of holes.
Mirka Abranet is a nice alternative. Joest (Germany) makes some nice stuff as well. Klingspor does make a series of 9-hole discs
sanders. They are, however, more expensive that the Festool brand.

I the past I have found Klingspoor abrasives to more expensive per disk than other brands but a much better value but have only used 5".

I'll add Mirka to that same cost/value category.

A few guys I respect are buzzing about this product. I am going to try this system. I'll let ya'll know soon.
Thanks much - I'm going to call specialtytools on Monday, because I don't believe they've shipped my order yet. It looks very interesting.
