Thread: What to use to slurry on the finest hones?

I haven't seen one of those credit-card size DMTs - are they coated on both sides? If they aren't, you could always epoxy glue a block of wood or something to it...?

thanks jimmy, DMT credit card it is for me. I will buy one

thanks zib, unfortunately I had to justify slurrying earlyer in this post.
I just don´t see any reason why NOT to do, or at least try it.
It is not true that it´s a waste of hone. I am not going to rubb a 320 grit stone over the surface all the time,
I think it would take a loooong time to use up a 3cm thick stone with a 1.2k credit card. I slurried my suitas for years now and not even my tiny suita slurry-stone made of a small piace of suita is used up. Not a bit.
Overly lapping is a waste of hone, slurrying certainly is not.
But I understand your points of view and respect them
and thank you all for giving me the informations that I needed to decide
