Hello I have a new raw leather veg tan strop. In my excitement I rolled the stiff leather smooth side out and put light surface wrinkles in it. I have used the shower steam and lots of handling and removed the texture of wrinkles .. I've used it and love it better then my prev jean strop. My question is, I want it smoother BC it does still have an uneven surface. I have 2000 grit sandpaper and lexol conditioner. Should I sand, clean, and then condition. Or condition first then sand if needed? Any help would be awesome. I guess I'm one of those " always looking for the best shave" guys.
