Lapping my GPU, help needed! *pics*

I've just finished my watercooled system - nice!
Although now, I am getting very tired of the high temps on my GPU (it was running at about 53 degrees celsius at idle)... So, I took of the waterblock, and discovered the problem at once... The waterblock had almost no contact with the center of the GPU! So I had two choices, using more AS3, or lapping the GPU - I chose the last option... So now, here I am, using sandpaper K600, K1200, K2000 and a heatsink (its level), but how long do I dare go - before I ruin my GPU? Never tried this before, plz help me!

Pictures of my progress so fare can be seen here:
