The only good solution is to use not 325 will get killed but use 225 dmt and DGLP.
This 2 lapping stones will help you.
to use small 325 as a slurry stone will work
Lasty if you want to get Max out of your CF you shouldn't use it with slurry.
CF is oil stone and mean to use for finishing.
hope this helps.
Your name is Sham, right?

Sham, I suspect you are correct, and that using paper might not be the most efficient use of my time. But until I do it, I won't appreciate the awesome stupidity of trying.

What's a DGLP?

While I know that a carborundum barbers hone is technically man-made, I'm pretty sure that my decades-old Aloxite is harder and faster than the CF. Can that be used to lap it or generate a slurry? I suppose that it can, but does anyone do that?

I've read about using oil on the CF, but I think that I will only use water.
