Some ceramic stones don't mix with soaps or detergents, particularly Shapton Pro's. Don't know about Naniwa but consult the instructions to be sure.Quote:

As long as the stone never dries you will be fine. Which proves once again you don't have to read the instructions because everybody has a well prepared reservoir to keep their hones in right ? Sorry, sometimes I can be an evil joker :<0)
