Review on Grit Selections for Micro Mesh Sanding Pads by Bret Wong

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Straight lines are your friend.

I used this set to remove scratches on my favorite watch and it works very well. more scratches. This is the process where Mr. Mägi was wrong, no small circles. Have you ever seen a show car and seen whirling circles in the sun's glow? This is because a circular pattern was used. Straight lines, straight lines, straight lines! Start with the coarsest sand and move in a straight line. Whether you start up and down or side to side is up to you, but once you start staying that way, use this pad until ALL the scratches you previously had are gone. Then, just to be safe, give him a little more and move on to the next playground. With the next block, move the pattern perpendicular to the pattern you previously moved until the scratches from the previous block are completely gone, and repeat the process for the rest of the set. It would also be nice to get a computer. Dust the keyboard and blow off any sand from the previous pass so they don't cause more micro-scratches under the next pad than the scratches that pad leaves.

Pros
  • Sanding blocks
Cons
  • Big and bulky
