Description The Toxic Problem: Regular diamond stone lapping fluid works extremely well. Lubricates during the sharpening process, suspends swarf/debris particulates preventing diamond surface clogging, and protects your tools from rusting after the sharpening process. The only issue is after you use it or until you read the contents and warnings “You MUST wear gloves and use in a well ventilated area.. This stuff is seriously poisonous. That’s not too much of a problem until you try wearing gloves when you’re sharpening a chisel. Akin to wearing boxing gloves and trying to operate a TV remote.. It’s just not practical. The warnings aren’t precautionary because regular diamond stone lapping fluid is mineral based and just read some of the end user reviews, some find themselves coming up in painful skin rashes and even hives.
