    Default dumb question from a newbie

    Hi Guys,
    A while back I bought a package from Lynn's store that contains 4 tubes of stropping/honing paste.
    1-has a yellow stripe
    1-has a green stripe
    1-has a red stripe
    1-has no stripe
    None of them have any markings or printing on them.
    Can someone please tell me which is which?
    Thanks so much. Sorry for not knowing better.
    -Jim Harper

    Black

    Not a finishing paste, but a strop conditioner for linen only; abrasive quantity unknown
    Yellow
    Not a finishing paste, but a strop conditioner for leather conditioner only; abrasive quantity unknown
