I accidentally hit my driveway with my PGM v2. Now there are two rough spots, one on each half. What grit sandpaper should I use to smooth the rough spots out? Thanks. 🙂

Start at a really rough grit and work up to about 1000.

If you just want to get the spots out, start at 1000 and gogogogogo.

1000 would be great for metal but it’s too fine for plastic.

I’d try maybe 400.
