my first lapping no pics though

[ukxenon]

I got my self a Thermalright Ultra-120 Extreme and after reading and trolling the forums i decided to risk it and try and lap it.

Got a blade and checked to see how bad it was and i was shocked to see the dips anyway i went to the auto store got some wetNdry and took the plunge and after 2 hours of using 2x 320 and 2x400 and 2x 600 and 1x800 and 1x1000 grit i was done.
My aim was to make it flat and not a mirror finish and i did it...........thank's to the forums for the guides and links was great advice for a nub.
