Thread: Observations and request for pointers on hand sanding

I clean jimps with CLR and a brass brush.
As for sanding, I go thru the range of grits from course to fine. If I don't like the look I repeat until I am satisfied. Then I polish with Mother's. If still not satisfied I may sand again. I wrap sand paper around wine cork. Sand length of blade. Then top to bottom. Then circles and diagonals. Keep changing directions as I go thru range of grits.
