Dial M 4 Monkey Posted October 21, 2004 Posted October 21, 2004 (edited) I've been looking at all the hardware stores and such in town trying to find the necesarry grit sand paper for lapping my heatsink to a mirror finish. The highest I have found is 400...a far cry from the 2000 that the OCC guide uses. If any of you have done this, where did you find your sandpaper? Walmart didn't have anything about 350 either.

airman Posted October 21, 2004 Posted October 21, 2004 car auto shops normally have those higher grit sand papers. if you have to, you can restort to buying them offline. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hardnrg Posted October 21, 2004 Posted October 21, 2004 if you can't find any auto places that do it, a quick search for "lapping kit" on a shopping search engine (or even google) should get you a quick result... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ccokeman Posted October 22, 2004 Posted October 22, 2004 If you are in the US Autozone was my source. Wal Mart also has a decent selection. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Byron Posted November 21, 2004 Posted November 21, 2004 I got mine from autozone and some other auto place, but I cant remember their name. Both are around the u.s and canada. If not, walmart and some paint supply stores have it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
