i never said that.
you will remove metal always.
how much is the question.
if you are in lower grit level you will remove more compare to higher grit stone.
Basically when you go from 4k to 8k norton only you will see very less metal moving.
if you have done job correctly below 8k level.
Now lets say you have 6k stone then when you move from 6k to 8k you will see less then 4k-8k level.
i hope now i am clear.
