    How about some lather? I say that mostly tongue-in-cheek as it seems that lather was touted as the oldtime barber's answer to most issues strop or hone related. And it may even help in removing the paste residue once the majority of it has been wiped off with clean, dry rags or paper towels.

    good luck, Bruce

    thank you for the heads up, i will try this when i get home, ill do the rag or paper towels. Let me ask you this, when stroping it should not "hesatate" or "drag" correct, should me smooth?

    A little drag or draw is ok, but not so much that you have to apply a lot of pressure. How long ago did you dress the strop. Maybe let it absorb for 2-3 days.
