What is the best sandpaper for electric sander?

Hi All,

I'll be getting a Bosch cordless sander and want to know what brand of 180 grit, for paint keying, the professionals would choose. I don't want cheap but something reliable.

Cheers
Daz

But they didn’t say which sander it was - orbital, belt and if it has dust extraction or not. The mesh wont work so well without extraction through it --- as far as I know.
I use mirka mesh on a mirka hand system with extraction and it leaves almost Zero dust.

Oh yes. It will be the Bosch Universalsander 18v which has a delta and rectangular plate. Would this mirka mesh be suitable for keying paint?
