Thread: Curious about Pumice stone?

I couldn't find any sort of thread on the "mysteries" behind using a pumice stone. So I searched a lot, not being familiar with pumice myself.

One of the most important things, that I gathered, is to get a very fine pumice stone i.e. the smaller the pores on the stone the better.
