<html><body><div style="color:#000; background-color:#fff; font-family:HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif;font-size:12pt"><div><span>Hi Keith,</span></div><div><span>On windows that were just lightly scratched, I sanded with 600 grit with water then 1500 grit. It only took two sanding steps. When there were deeper scratches, I wet sanded with 400 grit then 600, and finished with 1500 grit. When I had to remove gouges that you would think impossible, I started with 220 grit and then 400 then 600 and finished with 1500 grit and always wet of coarse. I polished with 3M 05937 compound in one step with a very smooth pad. I started polishing with a more coarse compound but found the fine stuff worked in one step. I polished the windows in a fixture so they did not move around and I could flip the windows over quickly and often to avoid building up heat. The windows
stayed cool with no trouble. </span></div><div><span>Hank</span></div><div><span><br></span></div><div class="yahoo_quoted" style="display: block;"> <br> <br> <div style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"> <div style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"> <div dir="ltr"> <font face="Arial" size="2"> On Saturday, January 11, 2014 1:11:15 PM, keith tollett <k6fee@yahoo.com> wrote:<br> </font> </div> <div class="y_msg_container"><div id="yiv9458546282"><div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">Hank,<br clear="none"><br clear="none">What grit and method of sanding an polishing did you use on the windows?
