It may have a fine and useful polish that you

Haven't tried it , i always thought u had to lap it first before you use any hone, but actually its in extremely good shape( a little too good) it is super smooth to the touch and like i said when i put water on it it wicks it away and its hard to keep water on it , so should i use lather, or oil? sorry for the iphone pics
