Yea, I basically have a norton 4k/8k, and a Naniwa 12k that I would like to do an initial lapping on, and from there on out, just do touch up lapping. I really do infrequent honing. I only have a few razors that I like to hone. I am just trying to stay away from sandpaper, I would like something that I can grab and use quickly, and that wont risk putting sand particles in my stones. I am trying to find the best solution.
Are the norton and naniwa safe for the DMT stones that are either XXC, XC, or C? meaning is there a risk with even those stones, of stripping the diamonds off the plate, and ruining the DMT? This is assuming I only use the DMT plate with the norton 4k/8k, and naniwa 12k, and nothing else (no barber hones)
