I have a horsehide strop that had gotten so slick I didn't have any feedback (draw) when stropping, which I didn't like. The manufacturer told me to use a medium 3M Block to bring back the napp which it did. Cleaned up the strop, too. Anyway, I'm wondering what I should do next, if anything.
I'd suggest just the usual palm rubbing and give it a go. You didn't use soap or anything so it shouldn't have removed any of the suppleness of the strop.
Make some tallow based lather,on a flat surface, lather the strop,take a wine or glass beer bottle,work the lather into the strop for 10 mins.
Wipe with a wet cloth.let dry.It will be as new.
