Its immediate as you start lapping how bad it is. Below pic currently at 1200 grit. I didnt spend that long being an4l about it all rotating it 90 degrees and doing 360 rotations on each grit. I rotated a couple of times up through the grits. I was careful to spend a while on the first grit I used to get it flat. Remarkably, two corners on mine just will not go flat as they literally curl away at an extreme. I am talking like a mm though and its at the very corner of the corner point so would not affect a CPU IHS.

I just need to make a final 1600 grit pass I think and I'm not sure I can be bothered with polishing compund just to get a mirror finish for forum brownie points. Just going to 1600 grit it and be done with it. Its flat = done.
