Does anyone know where to but diamond sandpaper? Sheets, not disks. I'm
not looking for a lot.
Thanks

I think it's normal to buy diamonds in suspension, and squirt
the stuff onto a substrate (paperm acetate, copper etc)

I've never seen it - diamond grit is usually bonded to
metal...probably because the paper wouldn't last that long, and the
relatively high cost of the grit.
Any particular reason why it has to be diamond and not, say, silicon
carbide or carborundum paper?

I've got Aluminium Oxide lapping film but not diamond. RS do both, but the
diamond sheets go for about £30-50 per sheet.

Google "Micromesh MXD". I'm not sure if there is a UK supplier but I guess
you can buy from the US if your need is great enough.
