I like green the burgandy is just a rougher grit like 120 vs 80 grit sand paper.  I don't personally wanted to remove any more surface material than I need when conditioning my calls. 

I do like the grey on aluminum.

Hello, all!

I just got a Lights Out slate pot call. I was wondering how you condition slate. A lot of people say to use a Scotch Brite "Green" pad and rub only in two-direction manner, with the grain. I looked all over for the regular green Scotch Brite pad and all they seem to make is the "heavy duty" dark grey pad (below image). Would this be to course to use?

Thank you.

The scotch brite green pads like the ones you can get at wal-mart work great.

I think the green is more abrasive then the burgundy.
