Sand Paper Help

[JAMMER]

I use 180 wet and dry paper dry rapped around a piece of paint mixing stick or a curtain rod stick to keep everything flat and level and save all the pieces and use them wet for the final smoothing. Ed

I rinse the paper now and then in the soapy water, and the body, under the faucet. Might take some time, but it will smooth over nicely.

Thanks for the info Nathan & Ed. I found where some one posted that the Poly-Flex sands real easy so after reading your responses and taking the easy sanding into account I went with 220 and kept it wet and so far it looks pretty good. Posted pic's on my build thread. Thanks again for the help guys.
