Re: alfa-digest V8 #631-crocus cloth

[alfakats@domain.elided]

hey, finally one I know ;>)  us refinishing junkies use crocus cloth as a 
final polishing tool. It has something like a rouge impregnated in the 
surface of a sturdy cloth-definitely finer than 400/600 wet/dry. Does not 
come in grits that I am aware of-please correct me if wrong, someone.
