its ok to use that.. problem is the small metal particles u prob dont see fall down in the oil chambers and get to the bearings so make sure u clean it out really really good with brake clean and all .. then pour some clean oil down to help out after its clean

220 grit is a bit rough. 400 grit would have been a better choice.
