    White Liner issue

    Only have worked with white G-10 a few times- I try to only work with "natural"color belts and sandpaper when close to finishing and hand sanding. Silicon Carbide belts tend to stain on the white. I also finish sand wet with the higher grits of the light colored paper But inevitably, even some...
