Anyone know what the OOB is on this piece? Lane machine scuffed it, I'd like to restore it. Thanks.

Usually they are 800-grit with varying amounts of their high gloss polish.  IIRC, my Conquerer was shiny OOB, which I quickly changed.

Thanks everyone. I'll e-mail L/LM to get the exact grit. And, you know x59, I might be with you on this one...not sure that I'll polish it back up either.

I actually have this info first-hand from Galen:

- 320 wet sand,
- 400 wet sand,
- burn in a coat of their Factory Finish polish,
- finally, hit it with a 1000 grit/white scotchbrite

I used to recall this information being listed on their website, is it still there, or did it get trimmed for newer info?

Trimmed, but they are considering strongly putting it back in the mix per LM Advertising thread.  I've been bugging them about that for a few months.
