Classic shaving white paste
Does anyone know what this white paste is? Is it comparable to the Dovo white paste?
The Classic Brand Lapping Pastes, 2oz
Could it be Cerium Oxide based? Has anyone used it....?We have assumed control !

If I had to take a guess it is probably like the Dovo yellow paste that is just a polishing aid. If that was a true lapping paste it would be 30 - 1000 grit which wouldn't go with the description that it could be followed up with CrOx. Again, just reading the description has me thinking it's a polish.
I could be wrong and have been before.
Not knowing what the material or ingredients are I wouldn't just buy it and try it. The CrOx is obvious whereas the binder they use could be the secret but with a white compound of unknown material has me worried especially with no diamond as filler. Makes one think they could be using carbides which are abrasive. ..... I still think it's a polish for that little extra shine.
Well, here is to hoping the gent from Classic stops by to help us out. This has me curious for sure.Last edited by Logistics; 08-02-2011 at 02:25 PM.
