How to finish brass guard?
I would like to give my brass guard a satin finish.
How should i go about this the best way? So far i'm at grid 400. How far should I go, and how to do the final finish? Why is there a big difference between which direction I sand? When I sand horizonta (blade to handle) the scratches are very visible, but when I sand vertically (top to bottom), they at not nearly as visible? |
