Default Re: Is it ok to go to greaseless after wet sanding?

x1rider,

After using the 320 greaseless I would clean the aluminum and go directly to Emory on a sewn buff. If that doesn't take out the sanding marks try wet sanding with 400 grit wet and dry, then try the Emory, Tripoli and White.
Greaseless is applied to the buff then let dry and then used. TIP: Get more that one buff to apply greaseless with, it will speed up your work.
Sanding: With aluminum I would start with a grit that matches the surface. Looks like you did that with the IC.

Keep us posted.....

John
