I made a sanding board with a piece of 1 x 4 and some 3M spray adhesive. I started with 80 grit open coat paper and sanded down the flox mixture that was high. I sure wish I would have been more careful when I did this. Got both tips done and are ready for some filling. I've read where it's easiest to mix up some microballoons and epoxy and slather it on. We'll see.
