Default Re: Can greaseless do the job? Pleasehelp

Hand sanding with a piece of rubber or hard sponge as a back up pad would cut faster, but it is harder work. Time vs. sweat? Which do you have more of? I almost always hand sand aluminum, and I make it less boring by doing it in small increments of time, spaced with working on other things in my shop that I am doing. That way it gets done over time without too much pain. Also I get better results because I am not trying to just get it over with.
