I use an old guitar strap as a strop because it's 2 and a half inches wide and I have a few laying around. Works great.
But being new to this whole thing, stropping included, I see a lot of posts and vids where people are using some type of cloth, then following that with leather. I have seen a SR Designs video called "Straight Razor Stropping for Beginners that mentions a poly/web material they use for the cloth part of this.
I have an old nylon or poly strap that would work well in this application, possibly. Can anyone confirm that this material will work?

I'm unsure whether the folds and creases will have any impact, either.
