[TheForge] brass

[Dan Scheid]

If you don't mine hand work then use sandpaper. Start with 150 grit and go
to 1500 then hit it with a polisher. You can get up to 1500 wet sanding
paper at an auto supplier in the paint department. If you want the quick
dirty way use a dremal tool with SS buffing compound

Morning all;

I have a small job requiring brass pieces 3 foot long bent 90 degrees 
along the length.  the bender left marks on the surface.  I have been 
experimenting on how best to get a clean shiny surface.  I don't believe 
I have the proper abrasives to get this done.  I am trying to remove all 
the scratches.  It looks like I need to order something to get this done 
right.  So I am asking the brain trust, what will work, and where do you 
suggest I order it.  There isn't much around here, so I will probably 
have to order online.
