Can anyone tell me what abralon pad(s) will get my Black Fire close to the OOB 6421 Compound 2X Finish? I'm not sure which abralon grit this would be equivalent to.
Thanks for your help

360
800
2000
abralon would be in the

The micron conversion chart www.sisweb.com/micromesh/conversion.htm shows roughly...
60 =240
40=320
20=500
10=1000

Guys, what kind of compound finish are you using or what is best compund to use for the 2X compound finish portion of returning this to OOB
I carry a gun, cause a cop is to heavy.

Compound finish is something like brunswick rough buff. It's like a polish that has some grit to it. 3M makes some good rubbing compounds too

Wow! All that? This is going to be harder than I thought.
Thanks for breaking it down for me guys!

what I would do is find a surface that works for you and use that, got to remember this fiinish is very quickly done at the plant, 30 sec each grit IIRC
I have not changed my BF or Boom R'ang surface yet. i did on my time bomb and pink panther tho
