Title: Sand Paper etc
Post by: m4ttc on March 08, 2011, 07:08:12 PM

I've got a Delta sander so wanna give a couple of bats a very light clean up. I've got some 180 grit to use with it but is this fine enough for a final finish? Should I use wet and dry after or even wire wool?

Anyone use and buffing tools/wax?
Cheers
Matt

if you use 180 you'll have to go through the grades of paper etc 180 240 320 400

Are they finer than 180 or courser. I only need to refinish / clean the blade. Any recommendations where to get supplies from?

yes 400 being the finer, i normally use 120 then 240 and finish off with a light 320 then a good 400 all over,pm me i can sort you some paper out for a small fee bud

Do you use wax like they do at the workshop?
