Just five to seven lap on srd crox spray on felt gives the edge a nice glide. Having shaved of the 20 k twice I can say the 12 k plus tad of crox is just as nice. Same again to many strokes on crox and the edge can be a little harsh. Less strokes, you can always do more. Being a coticule honer I got use to doing bags of strokes, with superstones it's total opposite . Naniwa 12 k. Can achieve a polished edge very quickly, this is what I have found.
