These pads are widely used in the metalworking industry and are made
in a variety of grits by 3M (Scotch-Brite) and other manufacturers.
They are available from industrial supply houses such as
McMaster-Carr and Grainger as well as metalworking supply houses such
as J&L, MSC and Enco.
Try searching any such site for "abrasive hand pads".
