yes you can use that, thoe a D.A is better, depending how rough your wheel are start with 80,150,240, 320,400,500,then with a block use wet n dry 600,800, 1200, 1500,2000 and finish off with a 3000 avlon pad, then smear autol-sol on (dont use peak its fookin SH1T) and polish off using a polishing machine, then it should be shinny enough to pluk your eyebrows lol!!!

Ok thanks!
Nicely explained.
Very scary to use 80 though

DA = Dual Action Orbital Sander; spins round as well as back and forth

I've always used P240 wet 'n' dry on a rubber sanding block with soapy water. It quickly removes excess anno and brake marks and I normally finish off with a scotch pad ... top results every time

Cheers chaps

...am looking forward to having a bash at this
