Dale: Such bad puns! We do (Oksana does) a lot of the same finger-numbing work in preparation for refinishing sharps. We use paper all the way down to 400 grit, and if there are holes or hollows, we fill them with a semipaste filler and then sand again down to 400. Then shoot them with satin black ultraflow lacquer from Mohawk. Rub out and shoot again, the rub out to preference. You can also use the gloss if you want to end up with a higher sheen.
