[QUOTE="moonbase, post: 1056383, member: 178786"] Today was dish sanding day. The band of grey paint that was left on the dish after yesterdays clean was removed today using sanding tools. I used an orbital sander with a sponge interface pad placed between the sander plate and the sanding disc. The sponge interface pad allows the sanding disc to curve and follow the parabolic profile of the dish. The first attempt with P400 grade sanding discs made some inroads into the band of grey paint but progress was slow. A change over to P240 grade sanding discs provided enough cutting power to remove the grey paint band without going through the white finishing coat on the dish. There are a few pics uploaded below from dish sanding day. [/QUOTE]
