this lapping process remind me when i'm doing my lab excercise while i'm in 2nd year at Uni.1stly i'm using different grid of sandpaper like the one used by TS.then i move to lapping machine with rotating mechanism at the midle.i add some alumina powder to the machine and begin to lap the metal.the result very2 good la...mirror shining untill u can see your own face very clear...much more near to glass mirror... thumbup.gif

p/s:that time i have to lap from freaking corroded metal to mirror finish.that @#$$ technician really lazy to prepare some other good metal.take very long long time to be finish.... blush.gif

will try to slip in to the lab to lap my heatsink some other time.wish me luck..hehe...

autosol take a micro layer but still if u do it with quite some time, u'll get the same result as the sand paper....
but still using sand paper is more faster than using autosol....

hehehe... i got bored and suddenly i wanna try lapping using autosol...
3 days autosol lapping juz to get the same result as using sand paper... (on my TR ultra 120)
also tried another HSF lapped using sand paper (my Scythe Ninja)
onli for those who are hard working enough la... hehehehe....

using sand paper much more effective to get flat and nice surface...the importance of lapping here is to get the most flatness u can achieved...
yeah, the mirror shining come in handy to satisfied our hard work... biggrin.gif

lapped few of my cooler using sandpaper grit 400, 800, 1000, 1200, 1500, and 2000. the result impressive.
but the temp just decreased for around 2-3'c... sweat.gif
