Painting and polishing question

Painting and polishing question

Painting and polishing question

(OP)
I have several questions.  Is polyurethane per MIL-C-85285 a good choice of paint for a chassis which is staying indoors?  Is Epoxy primer per MIL-P-23377 the correct primer?  What would be the correct chem film callout,  Mil-C-5541 Class__? and Type__?.

What is the finest grit belt you can purchase for a sheet metal house "Time-Saver" graining machine?  I am going to be requesting a nice finish on a 301 stainless steel part made from  sheet stock.  I either want all the grain to go in the same direction and to have as small of grain as possible, or I would like to have a nice smooth surface with no grain visible, but I am not sure how to specify that in engineering terms.  Please help.
