OK old timers, help me remember the brand and grit number for the compound we used to use to lap in pistons.
I thought it was the Helical Lap Company, but when I called them, they had no idea if any of their products are non-embedding.
I found this on the web for use with guns: http://www.brownells.com/gunsmith-tools-supplies/metal-prep-coloring/abrasives/lapping-compounds/garnet-lapping-compounds-prod25658.aspx
It comes in 600, 800, or 1000 grit. I assume 1000 is best.
Any thoughts?
