JNS 300 grit:
Nice to get the bevels cleaned up a bit, but straight stone finishes are a bit aggressive.
Here's a nice 240grit on fabric substrate:
I need to get more fabric-backed stuff...

One thing I've been trying just a little bit of and will probably do more of in the future is polishing on loaded balsa. I've been mixing grits on a few pieces and have gotten some variable results, but sometimes it comes out pretty excellent. Mixing 800/red aoto/naniwa 4k slurries on a piece of balsa produced a light misty finish on the cladding of a Carter, with some scratches from 800 visible...going to pick up some more balsa and try dedicated medium-high grit slurry loads.Thanks. It looks like I'll be staying with "too shiny" 'til I can afford a nice natural finishing stone!
