Handsanding the Perfect Satin Finish.......
Good morning and happy Saturday gents! Its time to roll up my sleeves and get to work on a couple blades i have kicking around and that got me to thinking about finishes. I do my restorations by handsanding and have had excellent results to date but i typically opt for a high polished or mirror finish. I was thinking of doing my next couple blades with a nice satin finish.
I have herd that a normal satin finish is usually between 400 - 600 grit. I was wondering if anyone could share their techniques with me to achieve the silky looking satin finish i am looking for. All tips are appreciated!
