I am in th
e process of restoring a really rusted up NEF Pardner. I have so far started attacking at the rusted up reciever with some 100 grit sandpaper and the rust is pretty deep. My main question, as of now, is what is the step process to get this thing to look normal again (or better)? Also, sanding it down, what would be the steps in grit numbers (100-300-600-1200, etc)? Right now using the 100 grit is letting me get deep enough into the metal that I can strip it down to shiny metal with no more rust on the surface. What I am mainly worried about though, is I don't want the finish to look like its made of wood and really uneven ad scratchy.
Thank you,
Damian
