Where to buy sand paper?

hey guys, i've been searching the forums for a couple days and haven't had any luck finding any sources on where to buy some nice sandpaper. with eshine's review with the flex and how capable it is on removing 1500 grit marks, i decided i would try it out on my cousin's 1998 prelude which has horrible paint. thanks for the help.

pakshak has some Meg's unigrit on their site

 

Most auto supply stores carry the finer grit paper like 1000, 1500, 2000 grit.

 

Yeah, i've seen them in pep boys, autozone and kragen. They are usually located in the aisle where spray paint/ bondo etc are.

 

Be careful 5th gen ludes have pretty thin paint. Wetsanding might be a hint dangerious.

 

Ace hardware usually has stuff for me. Or Kragen, Napa. Any good quality car parts house, or paint place...

 

thanks for the quick replies. man you guys are quick. ill try looking around locally to see if i find anything. i know for sure they dont have it at my local strauss auto center.

Sneeker, thanks for your concerns, the lude has really bad paint, if all goes well im going to save him a complete paintjob. this would be a project for me and my brand new flex whenever it arrives from DD.

Do you guys have any tips for wetsanding?
