+1. That's what I thought too. I use a layer of tape if I am doing the unicot method of honing on a coticule, which introduces a double-bevel. But if I hone by slowly diluted the slurry, as Chief mentioned above, then I don't use a layer of tape. So it really depends what method of honing I am doing on my coticule. If you don't know what I'm talking about, it's all here: http://coticule.be/CSA.html.
EDIT: The 2 methods described above also work for starting with X layers of tape and leaving it on throughout the entire process (through slurry dilution), or adding an additional layer (X+1 layers) of tape to create the double bevel as in the the unicot method of honing on a coticule.
