I searched and found quite a bit of info on the use of plastic polishes (PlastX, Micro-gloss, etc) w/CA finishes. A lot of threads reported the plastic polishes in the single digit micron range. Some threads also stated that the some MM such as 12,000 were equivalent or nearly equivalent to the plastic polish as far as micron rating goes. Being relatively new to pens (about a year or so) and even newer to the BLO/CA finish, would someone be able to explain the benefit of using a plastic polish when the micron rating is similar to MM? Would I be going backwards if I went to 12,000 MM and then hit it with a plastic polish? Also, if I MM to 12,000, do I still need to buff a BLO/CA finish? Thanks for the info.
