Auto stores like Pep Boys. That's where I got mine. You can also use toothpaste if you want. Heck, you can even use a sheet of paper. That'll be like 5000 grit

Go to your local Pep Boys or other auto body places. They have higher grits...up to the 2000 you are looking for!

BTW use
400
600
800
1000
1500
2000

in that order

or buy a lapping kit with everything you need, sandpaper and the polish.

dudes get baking soda toothpaste. its grainier than normal toothpaste so use it as your pre buffer and then go to normal toothpaste.
