Are these coming to the US?  Why wouldn't they?  They look great... Can anyone suggest substitutes?  Thanks.

Yes, mid-2012. Please refer to the following thread for info on new product introductions. These are part of the offering for the Surfix.

Terrific news. I think these pads are excellent for oil finishes.

See my review here.

Great, thanks!  And I'm glad they'll be available separately from the surfix system... for me the whole system seems a bit over-engineered and ultimately messy in terms of not disposing of the oil applicator each time and instead returning it back to the metal box... but these pads will be amazing to perform wet sanding on oil and oil-blend finishes... Thanks again, tony.

I did but I did not see the Vlies pads explicitly mentioned.  Anyway, thanks!
