Review on Compound Sharpening Leather Strop Paddle by Brad Lovro

This has arrived and the green coating has worn off in places showing black. I don't know if I should wash this green coating and then apply the green stick that came with the kit or what should I do? Can someone help? Write to JDixon1@bak.rr.com Thank you. August 11th. An email reply asked for a photo. I asked for a phone number to send a photo from a mobile phone but no one answered. The composition is NOT smooth. The compound applied when first opened was not smooth, it was "sticky" (my attempt to describe almost sticky, small rubbed off bits). The composition is not applied evenly and smoothly due to the sloppy way of applying it. Was glad to get an email asking for help but after stating I can't send a photo online but would like to send a photo from a mobile phone no reply! I can only guess and experiment myself out of ignorance and inexperience. upset.
