Fret Polishing Tip:

[Inspector #20]

I was looking for something other than a Dremel to polish frets with. I found these round makeup removing pads - about silver dollar size - which are available everywhere and work great.

First i smooth out the file marks with #1000, #382000 and #5000 3M wet or dry automotive sand paper wrapped around a crowning file.


Then, I just wrap one of the little cotton pads around a crowning file and get to work. I use a little automotive cleaner/polish/wax by Meguiar's as a medium:



Hope you find this tip useful...

I stop way short of there but a neat tip for those who polish.
