 RE: Sandpaper for reeds...

It depends on how you plan to polisht, & whether you plan to follow someone's system. Experimentation in grit strength will probably be the best answer for what *YOU* will prefer.

I have heard of (wet/dry type) Sandapaper being used in strengths just above 300grit to over 1000. I have some 2000grit & 2500grit wet/dry paper that I got from a piano store.

I use 400 & 600. I think someone sai that plain white copy paper has is actually fairly abrasive on its own!

Good luck.

PS - Lots of peoiple repeat an old expression, "NEVER WORK YOUR BEST REED!". However, this would be N/A wher you work all your reeds ight away. them first before
