So how is it that a shapton at 'almost' 1 micron (.92) is 16k but a 1 micron diamond powder is 28k and a 1 micron 3M sandpaper is 2k grit. :hmmm:

The micro mesh looks expensive, $10.80+postage in Australia for a 150 x 300 mm sheet.
Could you use a diamond powder the same way (4-8 down to the 0-3 micron powders), for buffing and teh final sanding of blades etc?
Not meaning that the powder is a mesh of course lol, but it comes in the same sorta grit's and is still intended to be used as an abrasion for polishing and sanding.
That could be a silly idea lol but its worth me asking!
Would 10 sheets of the micro mesh out last 100ct of diamond powder?
