Needing a source for abrasive cloth

This stuff goes under various names. "Diamond Dust Cloth" "Abrasive Cloth" "Duracut Abrasive Cloth" "Duracut Abrasive Cloth"etc.



Also called "aluminum-oxide" cloth



In the pic it's the dark roll on the left:

Not sand paper by any means.



Made , or distributed by 3M, I used to get it from Curtis Industries Part * 89224, (180 grit) but since they pulled the local sales force, it's more difficult to get.


The stuff isn't cheap , but to me it's worth every penny.


None of the auto parts stores in my area carry it, not even napa , even



though they have a host of 3-m products. They must have only a selective line. Even my auto-electric suppliers have a difficult time coming up with it.


Can you tell me a good source for it?


Thanks!

I am a bit lost what you are after.

I looked up Duracut Abrasive Cloth. All mentions were Chinese. I looked up Diamond Dust Cloth and got zero hits. I told Google: aluminum oxide cloth There were many hits:

Here is one that looked promising:

If this stuff is just sanding screen, go to a local plumbing store for something like this:

I know you said it is not sand paper, but if it has to do with sanding by any stretch, the folks at Klingspor are among the best:
