SELECTING THE ABRASIVE The best finishes can be achieved by selecting the proper type of abrasive. coarser grit abrasives will remove the most material while finer grit abrasives will produce the best finishes. Achieve best results by selecting the proper size and type of abrasives. Start the work with an abrasive grit just coarse enough to remove high spots and excessive roughness. Follow with a second sanding using a grit one or two grades finer. Continue using successively finer grits until t
