Just like Larry, I use 0000 steel wool and then clean with denatured alcohol.  :thumbsup:

Thanks, Guys!

I haven't ried the 220 grit paper or the steel wool yet.

Question: on the MFX Classics...does this take the "wood grain coating" off of the carbon shaft or are we sanding just a little bit so as not to take the coating off?

Thanks!

Just light enough will remove some of the very top layer of wood grain, but not all the way through the layer

9/32 will fix the problem....I turned down some 11/32 and still had the same problem.  

No problem at all with 9/32!   :thumbsup:

Using 0000 steel wool just scuffs up the clear finish over the wood grain.
