Not JUST a fine grit sandpaper, but multiple grits.
From 400 to 2000 (I think), there's about 5 variations between 400 to 2000 that you should get to lap it, and you take a marker, and make an x on the surface, make a figure 8 motion on a sandpaper that is fixed to the desk so it won't move.

You can get lapping kits on frozencpu.com website. |
