First off I want to say Thank You to everyone that has helped me recently. I've had a lot of questions and received some detailed answers. Thank You.
I've been reading a lot and using the search feature but can't find what I'm looking for.
I read here and there about scotch brite or scuff pads. I read where the thinner pads by Norton or 3M that you get from automotive paint supply stores are better than hardware store thick stuff. OK I'm good with that.
My specific question has to do with using these between layers of clear to scuff up the surface. They would be WAY faster than sand paper. I saw a guy using a pad with a sanding block and was amazed how fast it scuffed the surface. He said it didn't clog up like sand paper and he used it dry to avoid a water mess.
What color scuff pad it equivalent to what grit sand paper?
I do some clear coating of piano parts for a local piano shop. I'll spray 3 coats UC let dry a day then scuff with 600 then 2 or 3 more coats UC. I then block it 800, 1500, 2000, buff and polish.The scuff pad would really speed up my "sanding" time between clear coats.
Please spew forth great gobs of info
Thanks again.
