I did some searching in the strop forum, but couldn't quite find what I was looking for, my appologies if I missed it and has been discussed.

I've ordered the modular paddle, which comes with .5 micron diamond spray, which I plan on applying to one of the felt pieces. And because I like little projects, i'm nearly done building a balsa paddle strop and am planning to apply .5 micron CrOx to it.

The question(s): Can I expect a large difference between the two in how they touch up the blade, could/should one be used prior to the other, or am I just splittin' hairs?

Thanks,

Moe
