This will fray your string very quickly. Already yoyos that have an aggressive blast around the response area will kill string. So this would be a bad time

Sandpaper is way too harsh. It will wear your string very quickly.
If you are into making your own either look at using tub treads (rubber pads that keep you from slipping in the tub) or various silicone glues.

Yeah maybe like 3000 grit idk would be interesting to mess with but I imagine it would eat up the string quickly.

Not with that kind of attitude.
Let the kids play with their toys, and sandpaper.
What you should do is get a bunch of brake pads and make them thinner. Then you get a response pad and you get to sand something! Cork is a much better response media. Jmtc.
Y’all have a nice day now.
