Cool! What grid sanding paper do you use?

I use waterproof grain 400 (from the gamma  :D )
Did you use any liquid with the sanding paper?

CPO restored  :P
removed sig burn then polishing , looks brand new  :-*

I want to restore the CPO of Moon crest and Vanguard this weekend. Robin, the Vanguard CPO is not really flat, it has a curve because of the heat of cigarettes. I guess that I first have to flatten it before sanding them. What is the best way to flatten them? A heat gun (hair dryer) and sandwhich the CPO between to pieces of wood?

And what type of polishing disc is best to use on a simple drill? (boormachine)

Don't use wood... Not flat enough. Best is in an oven between to pieces of 8 mm safety glass. You Do it at own risk...  ;DThere is a thin line between  flat and kaasfondue. Melting punt is around 160 degree celsius... Just using a flat metal baking plate might work..... Start first with an old piece of cpo...
