I will try posting this question here as well. I am in the process of making aan aluminum pen and want to put a satin finish on it. I have seen some great satin finishes and was wondering what the secret is??? I tried straight sanding it with 400 grit and did not like the look. Then I tried to sand with a back and forth motion and still did not like the look. Anyone that has used a satin finish on your metal pens how do you do it and if you have any close up photos would be great. Thanks frop the replys.
