[QUOTE="SidecarFlip, post: 680870, member: 39764"] Lapping compound is grit, most times screened to size carborundum particles and sometimes sized diamond grit (in specialized lapping compounds). The stuff you'll use is carborundum in a pertoleum based carrier. It seperates as it sits. No biggie, You can mix it back up or use it as is. It's sort of like oil based paint but thicker and with grit suspended in it. My personal preference is Clover Lapping Compound (permatex). It comes in various grits from coarse (around 200 grit) to very fine (400 grit and over) and is available from most machine tool supply houses. [/QUOTE]
