Even though I take shallow cuts and run the feed belt slow, my drum sander sandpaper seems to load up very readily. I've noticed that most vendors' sandpaper rolls are not stearate. But stearate is known to resist loading. Does anybody have a source for stearate sandpaper rolls, suitable for a drum sander (2" wide)?

Thanks in advance for any advice or suggestions.

I can't help you with the supply, but if you use water borne finishes, you should not use stearated abrasives.
