Default Re: another everlasting debate (body work)

Brent, The Mirka product I was using when I was a lowly Tool and Diemaker in the late 70s and 80s, also the guys who hang sheetrock use a flexible sanding head on a pole to sand off the "dingle berries" and fuzz on their tape and spackle jobs. The sand paper is usually this abrasive screen. The abrasive screen was used in our shop for polishing the parts of the mechanisms we created, but they were always polished against a plate. The actual surface of the screen is very irregular. Whether or not this irregularity transfers into the soft surface of Bondo, I don't know. I have some of the Mirka type product and I will give it a try. I always liked the screen because it doesn't load up like sandpaper.
