I'm a "do it yourself" homeowner who has been using the Porter Cable Stikit sandpaper for years. My 100 grit roll is finally coming to an end after at least 5 years of use. I've used it on my Porter Cable Speed-Bloc Finish Sander for upteen projects. I've even used it sanding drywall seams when I built an in-law apartment. There are several things that I feel make this a superior product. First is the ease of installation. All you need is a flat surface, a utility knife and about 10 seconds. Second is the sanding quality, which is very good. Third is the no waste when attaching to the sander. The entire roll is used because no clamps are necessary. And I've never had a piece of sandpaper shift while on my sander. So I can't think of any reason why not to buy this product.

This is now the only sandpaper I use. The rolls are a convenient width and the adhesive back allows it to attach quickly to power sanders and hand sanding blocks. It also wears very well compared to other sandpapers

adheasive on back holds paper tight to pad, sands faster, last longer, easy to change. GREAT

A buddy of mine turned me on to this stuff, but not for the purpose it was designed for. It is great for my palm sander, sure, but I also stick strips of it side-by-side on a 12" square marble tile (granite would be better) I use as a reference surface for flattening things like my waterstones, the bottoms of planes, etc. I've also applied it to a 3"x24" flat board to use for sanding the rust off an old jointer table surface. I wish I would've thought of this before.

Friends,
I bought this Porter-Cable product, along with the 180 grit roll adhesive sandpaper. These 2 products, though they have the same SKU as previously, are no longer made in the United States. The longevity of the abrasive is shorter than previously on both grits. The units made in the U.S. were made by 3M for P-C. If possible, I would like to order the U.S. produced product.
Thank you.

Excellent sandpaper that holds up well.

fast,easy inexpensive option to the prepackaged stuff in stores only drawback would be for those who can't grasp the simple task of punching your own vent holes. For me, I use the tip of the scissors I cut it with.

This is a superior sandpaper to other sandpaper rolls I have tried. It seems to clog less fequently than other types of sandpapers I have used. I would recommend it to anyone.

I recently bought 5 different grits of this sandpaper. I use it to sand on my wood lathe. The adhesive backing works great to stick to your fingers while sanding and also to a sanding disk. Highly reccomend Porter-Cable sandpaper.
