I'm going to help you people out a little bit
first off depending on the roughness of material choose
your grit ex. cast 180, billet 220, if its real porous
material maybe start with 120. if you sand with like 80 grit
your going to be there for a while getting all the gouges
you put in out.
I never sand aluminum with more than 320 then it goes to
the buffing machine where various buffs and compounds are
used from harder buffs and black or brown rouge to softer
buffs and green or
White Rouge [link is to product info at Eastwood] there
is no set time on how long to buff something it all done by
trained eye or practice to know what you are looking for
before moving to the next step
I use some special products that are bought in bulk to
aid in faster cutting such as buffs or emery wheel sisals
and so on because of the need of quicker turnarounds but the
tips given are the real way a part should be polished and
won't take your life expectancy or a case of fingers and
elbow grease
HOPE THIS SAVES YOU GUYS SOME TIME ! AND START PRACTICING
