I found 2000 grit sandpaper at O'Reilly Auto. They only had up to like 800 out, but they had the 2000 in the back. For some reason, they don't like to keep it out in the store, so I just had to ask for it.

They have it at Wal*Mart in the automotive section, not hardware. Usualy it is next to the automotive paint section.
