Hi All
This is directed to the pros here.
How do I finish 1/16” sheet metal steel for a scratch free mirror finish for nickel plating?
Is this just all about handing sanding from 80 grit to 5,550,000 grit, and 3 million hours?
I’ve tried the Scotch-Brite Roloc discs but they only go up to 320 grit and they leave a lot of swirl scratches.
I’ve tried the radial bristle discs but they don’t produce an even finish. Metal always looks wavy.
I tried wet/dry sand paper up to 2500 grit on a sheet sander but that took hours.
How do you pros do it in a timely manner?
All help and advice is greatly appreciated.
