Howdy, I'm manufacturing a hickory kitchen for a client and they want Hi- Macs solid surfacing for a countertop. I've got to build up the edge to
1 1/2" w/a 1/4" beveled edge top and bottom and mount an undermount stainless sink w/a nice faucet set-up bored thru the top. I get the idea to rough sand mating parts for the glue to hook up, but after I rough saw the exposed edges what grits do i need to bring back the hi pro glow? Can I use an 80 tooth blade and expect to sand it clean or should I use the router and straightedge? I figger I'll start with 80, then 120 then 220. Is 220 going to cut it or should I proceed on up to say 320 then 600 or so? On the undermount sink, should I build up to 1 1/2" then mount the sink or is 1" the standard? Bevel the top, bevel the bottom, glue and screw the sink in...? Luckily enough this is a straight run, no joints to monkey with. I normally don't just up and do things without looking into it, but this seems pretty basic. Worst case scenario I'd have to sand my ass off. Won't be the first time for that either. Anyone on the Rec. have much experience with this stuff?Muchos grassyass, Russ P.
