Ping pong balls for the win. Once you've wrestled everything else in life is easy. Dan Gable I keep my circle small, I’d rather have 4 quarters than 100 pennies.

Only thing I put on my micarta is paste wax, never heard of anyone putting any kind of finish on micarta.

Just put it up against your buffing wheel, LIGHTLY, and it will come out fine. Remember, the "lightly" part.

Jud, If it is smooth linen scrub the [bleep] out of it with a green scotch-brite and soapy sudsy dawn, then polish with Ren Wax. If it is beaded or sanded linen or roughened canvas use 600 grit sandpaper, or best, pop it in the bead blaster...
You can no more tell someone how to do something you've never done, than you can come back from somewhere you've never been...

I used Montana Pitc h blend on some natural micarta. Worked well.
