Srp modular strop question
Just got my new modular strop in from Srp today and had a quick question. It came with a smooth leather, a rougher leather and two grey things that I would liken closer to linen (but it's not) I forget what it actually is, and some .05 diamond spray.
So my question is... Which one do I start the diamond spray on? I have a nice hanging strop that I put the white ti paste on the linen side and I kinda regret doing that since it's more abrasive than what I think should be on it so I don't want to make the same mistake with my new toy.
Other than that this thing is gorgeous and just plain awesome. I'm astonished at SRP's quality, ingenuity, and speed on getting me this bad boy.

Most likely the wool felt, I have the srd paddle and came with two wool pads on which I sprayed one with diamond and the other with crox... So most likely should be wool. But to be sure post pics.

Wool felt! That's exactly it. I had a brain fart and was to lazy to look it up. So if I put the diamond spray on the felt, what would I put on the rougher leather?

I would leave the scrub leather as is..you have the f felt for the spray..use the scrub leather like you would use the linen or web on a normal strop.

I think it is the photo angle. His is taken sort of straight on and doesn't show the sides as your photos do. Obviously the material on the paddle is interchangeable and he has the leather while yours shows the felt. AFAIK there is only the one modular model.Originally Posted by Marcelitegti

That's what I thought too, but actually there's two paddles. One isn't modular and has textured leather on one side and Premium I on the other, fixed. The other paddle is the modular system.
