    Yes but it will be a bit rougher polish at 1k. Pic #1 is on a Jnat finisher

    Lol, good point. This certainly has been a hard learning experience. Thanks for the pics- I'm a visual learner so now I know what to look for.

    Yeah me too. I heavily depend on what I see but don't ignore other tests.

    That's what I'm so frustrated about- it passed the tpt, it popped hairs, I was able to shave my arm hairs easily, I just don't get it!
