    Sometimes it pays to experiment with different finishing techniques on coticule. Some stones do well when finishing on plain water, or even under running water. Other stones might excel when a 'misty' slurry is used to finish. This can be done by rubbing the slurry stone over the coticule once or twice to create 'slurry-tinged water'....

    I have even fooled around with using Norton Honing Oil on my coticule to finish. It actually seems to work well as coticules are non-porous....You can just wash it off with normal dish soap....
