Wet sanding paper grades?

I'm getting all my stuff together to mirror finish my 1986 Sovereign. I know that the endcaps need to be wet sanded to get the "pimpling" off of them, but am not sure which grade to start with.

I plan on using buffer wheels to polish this time, so if anyone has advice on the grade to start with on that, I'm open for advice in that area as well.

I PM'd bake315 who did his 1994, but I noticed he hasn't had a post since 2008.

If anyone can help me out, thanks alot!
