When sanding to paint bullets...

[sidey]

When sanding to paint bullets (2.0) what grade paper do i need to go down to? I assume i don't need to get all the silver off, just give it a key.

I've done them with 240, 400, 800, is that too fine as they seem really smooth?

If i was doing them i would key them alot with a gren pad of similar then smooth with 800 pre primer then 1200 after maybe 2000 depending on finish achieved

If your not 100% on them you can always test them with primer and c if it takes and if so how smooth

800 pre primer is fine

Cheers jimbo, read that (i'm an avid trawler) but the difference in starting from silver made me wonder.

Whereabouts in kent are you?
