i lap my heatsinks differently though
i use a sanding block or some sort of blocks
and work from 600 to 1200
but ive heard that to get the best results, you are NOT suppose to lap the lines crossing
you can only lap it one direction
and its like push, lift, move back, push, lift, move back...

the motion is kind of like when you are making a bread dough
that not right... you make an L shape or you turn the heat sink as you sand.

aslo 2000 girt is were you want to sand to
