Hi Vince,

I know you are a proponent of using flap wheels to smooth bottoms and glaze
drips. Could you tell me what grit you recommend. I looked in my Granger
catalogue and they come in 60, 80, 120 and 180 grit.

Thanks,

Ingebord -
I would go for the 80 grit. I have used the 60-grit as well, but it is a
bit coarse. If you want more of a polished effect, then you might consider
the 120-grit. So the answer to your question is "yes."
