New canvas strop conditioner
I have a new strop and while it is quality canvas I cannot wait
for the linen/canvas half to break in.
I have applied a bit of TI white paste but I am wondering
if I should have tried something like common chalk
or diatomaceous earth dust. Both are slightly abrasive to
the fabric but not so abrasive that I would end up with a hone
in contrast to a strop. If I was talking about blue jeans I
would just wash with some bleach and hot water.:idea:
I almost did not ask because as long as a strop lasts it
might be 40 years before I need to know again.
Thoughts?
