Think of Yorkshire Grit as a liquid sandpaper. Use after your initial dry sanding and before applying your final finish. And wacko – you are now buffed!
Yorkshire Grit Original Fine Buffing Paste
Yorkshire Grit is a hand blended mix of mineral oil, lemon oil, beeswax, rotten stone and pumice designed to give your wood turning the polished edge it deserves.
How to use Yorkshire Grit
You need to sand your work to 320 grit and make sure there are no tooling marks as Yorkshire Grit will not remove tooling marks. Apply the Yorkshire Grit with a paper towel in a circular motion with the lathe stationary. Then turn the lathe on and work the Grit with the paper towel. You can hear and feel the paste cutting. Continue working the Grit until there is no remaining residue.
What to expect
The abrasive powders in the Grit break down as they are being used, resulting in finer particles and a smoother finish, it will be like using 600 or 800 grit sanding cloth. The work should be dry by the time you have finished the process and then it’s time to apply your wax/polish finish.
