i think quite a few people find the diamond spray a little harsh, crox is much more popular

If stropping doesn't get me back to HHT positive, I look at the bevel with a 20x and 40x loupe. That tells me how much work the bevel needs. Depending on how it looks, I go back to 5 micron, then 1 micron, then 0.3 micron tapes. Sometimes I can skip the 5 micron step if the bevel isn't looking too bad. Then leather strop to finish. I've read differing estimates as to what these micron tapes grit out as, so I just use the micron designations.

My linen strop is covered with Dovo white paste that isn't abrasive. Can I apply CROX over this white layer? Do you guys think it's a good idea?

it is not advised to apply it to your everyday strop. make a bench hone from balsa wood would be my suggestion.
