    I find a cork and WD40 works best for me. Stiff enough to keep from blowing-out the pits.
    I also find 400 seems more aggressive on a blade than 320 does due to more garnets on the blade.
    There is a place for worn wet and dry in-between as well.

    I never get in a hurry. I have been on this one for a few months. Sitting and sanding as I feel like it.

    This blade is thick, so I have a ways to go. Still, it might be too wavy as-done and I will likely stop at 600 and leave it like that.
    Sanding striations hide some sins, don't you know!
