Grits for the Grind

Hello,

I have been looking at grits and have either a lapidary store (cheap starter packs) or a more commercial supplier in Sydney (a lot more variety of grits on offer).

What grades of grits do I need to step through the mirror making processes. I would prefer to spend longer at each level of polishing, over buying a lot of various grits.

For the final polish I was going the cerium oxide, is it worth the extra money over tin or the aluminium oxides?

Any suggestions for good suppliers to work with, or the brands that supply well graded grit compounds etc would be welcome.

Thanks
Steve
Ps. I'm working at F6 FL's, so I am hoping this will make my 1st project a lot easier.
