Step 1Apply the compound by rubbing it on the side, the smoother of the two sides. The simplest way to describe this process is like coloring with a crayon, back and forth with light pressure. |
Step 2Cover the entire leather surface with the compound. Condition the leather with a few drops of oil and charge the strop with honing compound.The waxy consistency allows it to adhere well to any substrate without powdering. |
Step 3Place the blade on the leather. The cutting edge should be near the edge of the leather. Adjust the angle of the blade by raising the spine (The back of the blade where it isn’t sharp) slightly creating a wedge with an angle of around 15 ? 30 degrees. |
Step 4With light pressure push the blade up towards the top of the strop. |
Thats really up to you if you feel like the compound has built up too much then you can scrape it off or sand it down. Also if the leather isnt taking the compound or the surface isnt flat you can sand it down using 80 - 120 grit sand paper.
