Really good advice Felix. Especially about vacuuming the dust frequently
(no point in sanding fine dust into really fine dust). Your input is always
appreciated. On the other hand, we need to get you back to work on a Swift.
Get with it man! We want to see you on the race course.
With the epoxy/graphite powder on the bottom, I think wet sanding is the
real deal (no mask needed). Start with 200 grit and a 2 1/2 x1/4" Mahogany
long board that is the slightly long than your wet/dry paper (14"). Wrap the
paper around the board and use plenty of water. You really don't want to
breath
this dust so vac it up when it dries on your floor. Keep going up in grade
of paper and finish with 1000 or 1200 grit. It will look like a mirror and
will show where you need to do more work.
A little reminder. PURCHASE AND WEAR A GOOD DUST MASK for dry sanding. The
full face type that covers your eyes works best (Fisheries Supply) because
it appears that some problems come through the tear ducts.
