Default Re: polishing frame

If you use emery you can probably stop sanding after 600.

At this point I would try the emery again and see if that takes out the scratches. And if you do each step in a different direction (not always possible), you should be able to tell which one is leaving the scratches.

BTW, tripoli is usually brown in color. Red in most cases is a fine rouge that you'd use after white.
