I have been using Klingspor as my source for about two years now without any
problems. I also buy sanding sheets from them. As for the white oak, start with
a coarse grit and work your way up. I usually start with 120 grit for a board
right out of the planer and finish with 220.

I think that Klingspor is a great company. I try to purchase all of my
sanding stuff from them.

I'll second that suggestion, go with Klingspor.
