This is somewhat complicated. It depends on what shape the metal surface is in that you want to lap. If it's in bad shape where you can feel scratches on the surface with your fingernail, start with the 320 grit. And always do it wet. Here's a nice review of the kit I got not too long ago: http://www.3dvelocity.com/reviews/pcviper/ultrakit.htm
It thought it worked great.
