ATM Advice with Flexing a 16"



Hi,
 
I don't seem to be able to get much direct info on the flexing process. I just wanted some advice regarding the best order things should be done for a shaped back flexed mirror project. My mirror is 1" thick so I need to get the order of events correct.
 
Should I grind the front surface to the correct sagitta then grind the back to the same ROC and then finish the front? Or, should I finish the front to the polishing stage then go and rough grind the back?
 
There must be a defined method somewhere which yields the best results and least amount of dewedging.
 
 
Thanks,
