So I got this part for my q6600 and tried lapping it this evening. Followed the guides and everything. Apparently this thing is supposed to come a bit concave.
Anyway, I start going to work on it and after about 100 "back and forths' on 400 grade paper I just stopped seeing results. I could tell it was starting to get more mirror like on the outsides and down the middle. Looks like an I or H shape reflection-wise. I kept going for another 100 or so and just stopped seeing any progress. I mean this is after an 1.5 hours or so of work here without changing grades of sandpaper. Am I just being impatient? I'm thinking about returning it to the shop(doubt they'll notice what I've been doing) and getting the TUltra 120 and leaving it stock.
*maybe I should have posted in the other section, sorry, but this is the area in the forums I most frequent.
