Regraining Metal

Tell ya what, Mike, you’ll do the job a lot faster and end with the
same result if you start with 120 grit or so. Someone here, not to
long ago, said they start with 80 grit. Doesn’t really make a whole
lot of difference as long as you work your way up.

I use 120 grit, then 220 then I finish them up with a red 3M sanding
pad. No Novus or the like, just sand paper. Experiment next time you
do one and you’ll see the difference.

I don’t think I’ve ever spent more then an hour or so on any pin I’ve
done. And that includes waxing them when I’m done. :-)
