I'm trying to lap a 12K hone without messing it up. I have an "extra course" (220 or so?) DMT which I was planning on using, but it just seems a bit too rough to use on my 12K (as I read in the wiki here).
Any advice on whether or not its okay to use such a rough stone on such a fine stone?
Should I got the sandpaper route? and if so, what grit should I be using?
Do I need to lap at all?
Obviously I am new at this, and pretty nervous. I just don't want to mess up either my expensive (to me) razor or my expensive (again to me) hone.
Thanks,
Josh
