Cleaning & lapping question on Norton 1/4/8/k
Gotta love the search function- I was going to start a new thread too
While I expected the Norton 1K to get dirty fast I did not think the
same onthe 8K.
Is scotch brite/abrasive pad ok on 1/4/8k Norton stones?
When, not if , I someday find I need to lap (re-plane/level) a stone just
how is this done???
Rubbing it with a higher or lesser grit stone
Or since I have the 220 side on the 1K Norton can it be used on all of them-
I have not used the 220 side for anything-

GS- I suspect you do more honing than I will the rest of my life
What is the best way just to clean it the- pad or rubbing a hone across a few times? and when one uses a hone do you go up or down in grit?
Would a 220 be ok on the 4/8k or is that flat over doing it.
I have seen grey,red and green pads- is there a preferred pad grit just for cleaning??
