Well, since I've already stuck my foot in my mouth, a little more can't hurt...I'd guess ten-thousandths ( .010" )...I have a receiver with a date on it and it had some pits...so I used emery cloth to take out the pits...and about half the date is gone...Didn't take too much to get down to the base of the pitting...
