    ahahahaha 200/400 grit?? lolol. Once you got the paint off, you should have got a buffing wheel and polishing compound...... Using sandpaper on smooth metal to 'polish' is about as useful as washing your car with a wire brush to remove swirl marks

    No I used the 200/400 to get the leftover black spots off from the lip. But thanks for your helpful comment
