watching paul sellers in his sharpening video and he uses window
cleaner for his lapping fluid

i figured he just used what he had handy but i wonder if there was
another reason he used window cleaner

it dries faster than just plain water but maybe it floats the debris
away better somehow


Window cleaners help float the debris away, like you said.


How much?


About $2~4. How much what? Help? A lot of window cleaners suspend
the debris rather than let it settle back to the surface that it was
stuck to.
