I don't keep the tape on for the CroOx, newspaper, or regular stropping
I have done it both ways and I don't think it matters.
If you are honing with one layer of tape on your hones, i would keep it on with my balsa hone. If you are using strop coated with cro.ox i would take it of. Thats how i would do it. You can hone with out tape , then add a layer of tape to your razor, then finish on balsa, results are good, rayman recomends this process. Try it and see. with out tape is normally the way.
