Cheers Oz. Ive rubbed it all back to 1200 and evened the surface a bit more. When the micro pads arrive I should be able to rub out to 15000 or whatever the highest mesh is, and buff to a nice mirror finish. Originally Posted by oz tradie

All I can say is I love Micro mesh.
The pads arrrived in teh mail and I levelled the surface with 400, 600 wet, 800 wet a nd 1200 wet.
Then the wet sanding with teh micromesh began. all teh way upto 12,000. I round of cutting compound and some polishing with disk pad and soft cloth and now I can say its finished as well as I could get it done.
Im happy with the way things panned out especially after back tracking on teh original paint job. I also love what these little pads did for my frets.
Thanks to everyone's advice and heres to the next one!!
Cheers
Manny
