Shapton's Glass Diamond Lapping Plate is an essential tool for maintaining flat sharpening stones.
A flat sharpening stone is the foundation of precise honing. When working a stone, you never use its entire surface equally – over time, shallow areas develop, causing uneven abrasion. The result: your razor hones inconsistently, making a sharp edge difficult to achieve.
The Shapton lapping plate restores your stones to a flat, even surface. Simply mark the stone with a pencil, then work it against the lapping plate with water until every pencil mark has disappeared.

1.Keep the Stones Flat:
Regular lapping is essential to keep the sharpening surface flat for consistent results. Use the Diamond on Glass Lapping Plate (DGLP), available in our shop, to resurface your stones as needed.

These stones are designed to work with water. Before use, sprinkle a small amount of water on the surface; there’s no need to soak them. Avoid using oil or other lubricants.

After sharpening, rinse the stone thoroughly with water to remove metal particles and residue. Use a soft brush if necessary to clean the surface gently, do not use soap or other detergents, only water.
4. Dry Properly:
Allow the stones to air dry completely before storing. Avoid exposing them to extreme heat or direct sunlight, as this can cause cracking.

Store the stones in a dry, cool place. Use a protective case or box to prevent damage and keep the stones free from dust.
6. clean the stones before each use, make sure that no sand, dust or anything else is on the surface, rinse them before use. All dirt may result in scratches on the blades and the wrong sharpening results
