Trend Diamond Lapping Fluid

First off the BAD. Rec bottle with loose cap and roughly 1/8 of product had leaked out. The provided cap/applicator allows product to leak out uncontrollably when you only need a small amount. Product also smells heavily of Petroleum. Now for the GREAT. I purchased this product to help protect my diamomd sharpening stones from rust/corrosion. It does this and then some. Previously I would use krud cutter or just water and dish soap as a cleaner/lubricant which from what I could tell worked but caused discoloration. Now that I've used Trend I now know what my diamomd stones really can do. My diamond stones cut MUCH faster, more consistently and they look NEW when iam done. I even used on older existing diamomd stones and Trend brought them back to almost new. Even improved their cutting ability. I will NEVER use anything else on diamomd stones but STRONGLY rec swapping out the container for something more consistent and distributes product more precisely. Will purchase again in hopes I rec a full bottle next time.

I have a number of diamond sharpening stones, and I used to just sharpen dry, but always had issues with metal dust building up on the plates when sharpening. I now use this lapping fluid for all my sharpening and flattening needs - kitchen knives, hand plane blades, chisels, as well as flatting the soles and sides of smaller hand planes. A little bit goes a long way, just a couple drops is typically all that is needed for sharpening. I also always wipe off the slag when I'm done so that it doesn't dry and clog on the diamond stones. The fluid is definitely expensive though, and honestly not the greatest value, but it does work, and works well. As long as you are careful not to waste it, even the small bottle will last a long while, depending on your sharpening needs.

Works well

Seems to work well but the price is ridiculous for the bottle size

Using this on Trend diamond plates and not only is it honing lubercating it also prevents corrosion. DON"T USE WATER on your diamond plates

Great product

It works very well. I just open the cap and tip it and drag, no need to squeeze.

Great oil for sharpening.

Looong time for delivery ! And pricy !

Works as advertised, I.e. does what it’s intended to do.

Always arrives the next day. I have used it before to treat Nail fungus with success. It was recommended by a pharmacist.

Excellent product but I would have preferred a smaller opening to the top, reducing the chance of over use.
