It's just the abrasive in sandpaper but in powder form that you can apply yourself. At least that's what I think it is. Lots of guys use it, like it, and spread it. I think it's too much hassle for what it's worth. Buy a dmt 325 and never look back. No powders, no mess, no flat piece of tile or glass to worry about. Granted you save a few bucks, but in my mind not dealing with the extra mess more than makes up for the extra cost of a dmt. I bought mine when I first started honing over 2 years ago. How long does sic powder last?
