Honing out chips in hollow ground blades

I recently bought a Boker on eBay from my iPhone. On the phone, I thought the chip was smaller than it really was. It ended up being something like 1/16" out of a 5/8" blade. I've mostly removed it through honing on a Naniwa 1k with 2 layers of tape. I've been doing mostly circles and a few X-Strokes.
Here are my questions:

Does this honing damage the razor permanently, or does it just change the nature of the grind? That is, is a hollow ground unusable after this, or is it just a slightly smaller blade with a wedgier grind?
My second question involves my honing itself. I noticed that there is a very slight frown developing near the back of the razor. How do I hone this out? Zero pressure and circles?
I will post pics when I get a chance to show you what I mean. This is especially useful, cause I bought a 5 dollar Kama off ebay that had a similar, but slightly smaller, chip in a different part of the edge (I was already buying two razors from that seller tonight, so I figured what the hell. 5 bucks won't kill me and it'll be a fun chip to mess around with).

This may help you

depends what grit stone do you have is naniwa 1k is the lowest grit then you will need some pressure. About the fown blade. don't look at the edge check the back of the blade . you wll need to tape most honed location and hone less honed location. hope this helps.
