: Hi John;

: I haven't experienced the kind of problem you describe, but I have replaced
: the hooks on my ROS a few times, switching from loops to self adhesive
: disks and back. Home Depot (for sure) carries a 2-pack of the self
: adhesive Ryobi H&L adapter disks for some modest cost (about $5, I think.
: If your ROS uses an 8 hole sanding disk, These adapters can be used with
: H&L disks, and they seem to work well - And, you can peel 'em off when you
: switch to the 500 bargain pack of self-adhesive disks!

: Best Regards, Spidey

Thanks Spidey, and all. I think when my present supply of hook and loop disk's run out I will convert to the self-adhesive disks.
