I have seached and seached and I cannot seem to get the answer I am looking for.

Here is the problem, after all of the reading that I have done I am trying to strop without pressure. I am using a TM red latigo strop and a full hollow 6/8 Dovo; I just cannot seem to get things to come together. I pull the strop very taught and let the razor lay on it naturally. Then I move it back and forth. There is no noise to be heard. I have noticed that the blade isnt really touching the strop. It is like the razor is riding on the spine alone. It is the same with the linen side as well. I can see that the blade comes off of the strop by about 1mm when I move it.

I am afraid of rolling the edge on my Lynn honed blade so I am trying to be as careful as possible.

What should I do?
What is wrong with my technique?
Should I be applying some pressure; how much?
Should there always be a scraping sound or is silent fine?
How can I keep this thing slicing hairs and not roll the edge?
If it does get rolled can it be fixed on a pasted strop or the linen side or must it be rehoned?

Thanks guys.
