Some of the numbers have already been worn off the 4000 & 6000 micro mesh pads. Here are some close up shots of the fine grit particles that these micro mesh pads bring up, and this is after wet sanding to the smoothest level possible with the previous level of grit.
This is the 6000 pad...
Now the 8000 pad...
And finally the 12000 pad...
Surprising how much grit these things pick up from the finish, even up to 12000 grit
I have gone through all the grades of these on the FrankenWashie on Bare timber and even with the Vic ash center section it has pulled up a fantastic shine.
