too much what? you mean too much work on blade,

Seems you began with the more aggressive compounds and applied too much pressure. I always start with the 600 and work my way up. The 80 and upper grits are very aggressive. Start easy and lightly. Best way!

What are you trying to prevent? The photos look as though you've taken chips out of the blade. Probably just a bit more care with the quickly rotating hand tool. Hopefully someone with more knowledge about dremels and things like that will pop by and help you out.

no problem with chips but if you look at the blade, douwn of the toe, i lose some metal, i want to prevent that.

I am quite novice with the buffer and tend to mostly hand sand. Both Undream and Gssixgun have videos on how to use a buffer.
