You now have a good quality set of hones, good job. With practice and lots of patience they will get a razor to shave ready, provided no heavy lifting is required with low grits. Make sure those new stones are flat, don't assume they are. Pencil a grid all over stone face and lap with a fine diamond plate. Repeat process to be sure. Before a honing session I always run a few laps across the stones with a fine diamond plate. Hones can dish faster than you think. As the other fellas said, run the tape from tip of toe to just past shoulders. Avoid bubbles and wrinkles in tape. Sounds pedantic but you gotta do the simple little things right. Check tape regular, it can wear through fast on 1k. Remember, be patient. Try avoid info overload, I found it useful to follow honing advice from just one or two helpful experienced fellas.
