I found Scotch Bright Pads pretty cheap
« on: December 31, 2007, 07:59:50 AM »
Similar to the thread about finding cheap abrolon pads online

(www.supergrit.com for those that didnt catch it at $2.50 a piece)

I found Grey, Maroon, and White SB pads for $1.00 online a piece... Granted it will probably cost more to ship then for them themselves, for some people they are hard to find.

http://www.44tools.com/merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Category_Code=cleanpad

Scroll down, and you will see them.  The Maroon pad is listed as a 3M Scuffing pad, but I'm pretty sure its close to the same grit.

Later,

Plus $7-8 shipping for $1 purchase.

Many places sell packs of 20 Scotch-Brite Pads for $20 plus the same $7-8 shipping. That's why it's better to split a pack with 2 or 3 friends or keep the whole pack yourself. - UNLESS you're buying several other items, to make the purchase of 3 or 4 pads worthwhile.

If you order them from a site that has a pack of 20 or so, will they let you mix and match the grits you want? Because if I did buy some, I would buy roughly 2-3 of each grit and it would be about 6-9 total (2-3 maroon, gray and white, because I can get green anywhere).  I'm just in an area that its a little harder to find these grits at.  

Thanks

No, a pack is sealed in plastic from the factory.

Their website is under construction. Searches point towards other woodworking web sites. Can you be more explicit?

I added one white scotch brite pad to my basket. They wanted $11 (cheapest price) to ship. I don't think so.

You can order them directly from 3M, in any quantity for about .97 each. Shipping is very realistic, 2.50 for "ground" shipping for 6 pads. Various grits, or colors available there as well.
