Thanked: 335Oil vs. Water
Is there any reason that water is being recommended for use on something like an old oilstone? I can understand that on water stones one should use water, but on a stone such as novaculite or a manufactured silicone carbide or aluminum oxide stone, where the manufacturer suggests using a light oil, what advantage is there to using water? What disadvantage or counter indication is there to using oil?
In ignorance, Bruce
