I tried the micro mesh on some wood last night after sanding with a 400 grit paper. Even dry the micro mesh at 1500 gave it a real smooth feel. I followed up with the 2400 and it was like glass. I'll be doing this prior to paint on my next stick. I will also do a wet polish with these on the final gloss coat and we will see how it goes. This almost makes me want to get some of the finer stuff, it goes up to 12,000. This micro mesh isn't even paper, it is more like a cloth.

edit** I just found sets of
Micro Mesh Pads if you look in the 'more info' tab on the page it says that they are washable and reusable.
The sets come in 2x2 and 3x4 inch pads and includes all 9 grits from 1500 to 12,000. I'm ordering myself a set in the 3x4 inch size.
