Ceramic Sand Paper

I have just tried the "Shop Smith" ceramic sand paper (220 grit) for finish prep. This is my first experience with it and so far have been very pleased. It does not load, seems to be long lived and leaves a scratch track that I would expect from a 400 grit paper. Anyone else have experience with this type of paper?

This is the link that you asked for John. It appears that "Gator" manufactures for ShopSmith. Labeled clearly on the papers back. I'm not a fan of Gator's paper but they seemed to have gotten this one right.
So far, I am very happy with it as a finish prep paper. It cleans up easily with a pass on edged piece of wood or even a shop towel should it get clogged.

Put this stuff on your stationary belt sander and get blown away. Better than the expensive zirconia blue paper by clingdspore
Only wish they made roles for the belt sander plainer. Any one know if they do?
