Thread: Hone lapping on a glass plate with silicon carbide powder - pictures

Traskrom use thin(0.1-0.2mm) self adhesive foil on the glass plate. This way
the glass will not get abraded.

Another thing after you have flattened your stones this way, I would use a diamond
plate to flatten a bit more. I have noticed some particles of the loose grit embed themselves
in the waterstones. By using the diamond plate you ''clean'' the upper layer a bit.

I don't have good experience flattening natural stones with very fine abrasive. The surface
loses its abrasive quality, it becomes too smooth. Practicallly nothing happens this way. Super
slow.
