[QUOTE="DaleH, post: 457097, member: 15636"] I'd take crocus cloth on a hardwood backer and would smooth it out, then Id have no problems running it ... from what I an see. They say never to use a file on an aluminum prop as it can impede welding if you ever go to get it repaired. I prefer SS props for bite, as they hold the water better and you can therefore mount the OBs higher. But I'd only use them on higher HP motors. If ever looking for a new prop, the 'pressed' aluminum ones by Turning Point are de bomb! The blades are thin like SS, some new manufacturing process. Mine has been awesome on my 60hp, the hole shot is tremendous! [/QUOTE]
