my hook and loop pad never wears out accept one time. I ordered some mirka sanding disks. The ones that look like mesh. They were so good and wore like iron but the hooks would work through the mesh and sand all the little hooks off. They do sell an interim pad in case that happens. But it’s also got hooks so they wear off very fast. Now I still buy a good brand of paper but it’s paper. And I’m sure to line up the holes good. If you don’t the hooks again will wear off quickly where they are exposed.
