Hi,
I have a DMT Dia-Sharp( the little credit card sized DMT. I was trying to "break it in", or smooth it out before using it on a Shobu-dani to raise a slurry with.
I read one way to do this is to rub it on a very hard stone. Well, I made what I think is a big mistake. I thought "hard stone?" , Arkie.
I used it on my hard ark, not thinking that it is an oilstone. Now I have a big circle of what I can only imagine is an oil slurry on my DMT. I cannot get it off. Tried washing, using Naphtha, scrubbing it with Old Dutch cleanser(like Barkeepers frind). Cannot remove it. It leaves a greyish muddy slurry on any stone I used it on. Any one know if I can fix this?
