Help
Hi All!
Would somebody tell me the proper techniques for obtaining a silk finish on wood turnings! Am I not been patience enough. I never seem to be able to obtain a really perfect sand finish. It is just a matter of starting with a 100 grit or so and advancing to 400 or more? My sand paper clots at grits over 250. Do you clean the sandpaper? Will a water paper help. What are the advantages od water paper over regular. Its wood I'm sanding not metal. Help Please Keith Newfoundland |
