Print out whole ms (NOT in SMF, as that takes up too much paper). Sit down and read through, making your marks, your notes, your corrections with coloured pencils.
Not only do you look for grammar nits, but make notes about encluing, when characters first show up, setting stuff you may want to refer to later, and generally anything that occurs to you.
Don't forget to spill coffee or tea on it at some time. I had to make do with milo, but the effect is the same.
