Ceramic Sanding Belts

[Dave Lehnert]

Anyone have experience using ceramic sanding belts? Are they better?
Shopsmith (Yes, the 5 in 1 tool manufacture) is bringing to market a line of ceramic sandpaper to Lowe's and Ace Hardware soon. I have never used them and just curious.

I read an article some time ago on Sandpaper and had saved it in my favorites..

They say that Ceramic is usually only available in coarse grits..

Thanks for the link. Looks like the new line does come in a range of grits.

Dave if you get some please let us know how it works out. That is the one area that I just can not seem to find good disk that last like I think they should.
I go to ACE a lot so I will be looking for it also.
