lapping fluid
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 |

: 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 I can't think of any reason it'd be better, but I'd avoid window cleaners with ammonia. No need to make things corrode any faster than they do naturally. John |

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. |

No need to make things corrode any faster than they do naturally. no idea what window cleaner he used and i do not know what the ingredientss are in window cleaner i think it may have been just something in a spray bottle he had on hand and used it and liked it so kept using it |
