Japanese Chiyogami Paper cast in PR on a Black Titanium / Titanium Gold from a while back.
Sanded radially and laterally with 400 grit only, buffed radially and laterally with extra fine steel wool
applied Hut Ultra Gloss and polished with a piece lamb's wool.
Got a 40X Loupe scratch free finish.
Haven't used Micro Mesh for years, found it a waste of money and time.

This paper is a magnet for so many reasons pens made using it have been around for years now your version is no exception to the quality results and is indeed seamless requiring intense cocentration and skill.
