Very nice. I need to find some decent panels and start practicing with a buffer.

i`m confused, is #80 less agreesive than #83? but #80 is more agressive than #82 if all is used w/ a pc? is this correct?

no it was pitted quiet badly, as you can see in my mid sanding pic there are still pits remaining at that stage





gopedhead....#83 is most agreesive #80 and #82 are similar to each other with #80 having a slight edge over #82 . megs names their stuff wierd, it seems to me theyre almost ramdom numbers :o

Nice job on the Pterodactyl poop!!

I agree with the wet-sanding call.

We have already gone over this with you.

83, 80, 82.....thats the order of abbrasiveness.
