Auto parts stores ussally have good paper. Mine stocks up to 1400 IIRC.

Seeing as the cores are not perfectly flat, you need to use some sort of goo. No matter what. Actually the pits in a core are quite big, so artic silver of some sort is recomended. So if you have a gritty substance (Artic silver) and tried putting a mirroed finish cover over it, wouldnt that (For argument sake) lift the mirrored surface off the core? So why not have 2 roughter surfaces so that the artic silver could effectivly fill both surfaces, bringing them closer.

Very good point. I once looked at a Duron under a steromicroscope and was amazed how rough the surface is. Unless you lap the core, I think a SMALL amount of compound will always be needed.
