I have actually seen that done about 60 years ago to raise the compression on a Mercury two stroke outboard motor used in racing.---Brian

Glass table top and sandpaper? That's luxury that is!
We used to do motorbike heads by rubbing them on the concrete garage floor.
Was a lot younger and fitter then. (And quite a bit less fussy!)
