If I'm painting then I start with 80 then 180, but aluminium polishes really easy so you can start with 80,180,320,600,800 then buff and it will shine like chrome. Cheers Marty
Yer cheers mate, I’m getting a boat welded up but I need to do the finishing sanding clean up ect , was thinking of sanding back then acid wash then penetrol the thing then part wrap it what u rekon
Sounds good to me, go down to 240 then penetrol, make sure you get the aluminium penetrol as there are different types, I'm going to use penetrol on the hill on my boat, good luck with the finishing. Cheers Marty
I also really like to make a boat like that. I really hope to receive the design. Thank you very much.
What sort of sanding to get to a good finish
