Hermes Sandpaper WS FLEX 16 180 Grit Silicone Carbide Abrasive Sheets.
230mm x 280mm sheets (9inch x 11inch)
This is the sandpaper that I use and recommend for sanding opal and ironstone.
The WS Flex 16 sandpaper gives a beautiful, consistent finish on the surface
and outlasts all the other sandpapers that I have tested.
The opal surface can be pre-formed using aggressive diamond tools,
then use 180, 240 or 320 grit to do the medium sanding
and the 400, 600 or 800 grit to do the fine sanding/pre-polish.
