should this compound be applied to smooth or rough side of the strop?

Either side ,but rough side works best always no matter what the stripping method is it buffs better on a rough side.

Rough side. Scrape it in like cold butter on hard bread. Use a dull knife or a spoon

I've seen it done on both sides. I tend to do it on the rough side of a scrap piece of leather, that way there is no chance of the curing/smoothing process of the leather affecting blades. People who have used the smooth side have told me they prefer the rough side as well.

Be sure your hands and the application area are clean. I invert the bottle onto my fingertip and rub gently onto the sore area, using a minimal amount.

It is better applied with a brush. It has a hardener which gives you about 45 minutes to apply before it gets too stiff. A roller would become too stiff to use.

Sand lightly with 400 or 600 grit . I don't remember if this neck has a light sealer or is naked, but either way a light sanding won't hurt. Wear latex gloves to keep from transferring body oils.

It would take a lot of rubbing. It is for surface oxidation and slight calcium buildup. Try Lime-a-way.

Much the same results when you hone the edge. However, nothing can or will replace a strop.

Yes. My husband's is short and very coarse. It is noticeably smoother and softer immediately. Use daily and it tames even more

Spray it on pressure and the amount of catalyst will effect the texture.But to get the effect you want spray one to get the rough texture, then roll on the final layer. Comes out withe fairly high peaks and valleys, but is still snoot to the touch. I did my boat that way so it doesn't tear up my feet and knees! But you still get traction.Glbn

I'm sure it can. I've used the green oxide stuff on other leather strops and was planning to get a stick to refresh this one after a while. I think any compound made for a strop would work.

If the scratch is really large and deep you may need to smooth it out a little. Generally the compound will work well enough on light scratches I understand but I'm not a good one to answer for certain because the product did not work on my scratch anyway.

This would be inappropriate for use as a lapping compound. Amazon does sell lapping compound, I've purchased it .

there is no difference. The compound is not good at all. You waste your time if you want to use it.

This is a stropping compound. I'm not really sure what grit that would be. I would assume several thousands lol? It's designed to "polish"/smooth micro imperfections in the edge of whatever you sharpened. Hope this helped.

Probably better to use your fingers. I found that trying to use a trowel or putty knife I couldn't get it smooth.

On any whetstone you should be able to see that one side looks smoother than the other. The finer the grit, the later in the honing process you use it. In this case the lighter side is the finer grit

The surface shoiuld be smooth before the primere coat is applied, so if neccary, do sand and if needed reapply the OSPHO. Primer and then sand the primer smooth before applying the finish coats
