Hello I am a new Tormek user and I was hoping to benefit from other people experiences with the honing wheel. I was wondering is it a good idea to scrape of the black viscous mix of steel and honing compound that builds up on the honing wheel after quite a bit of honing?

General Tormek Questions / Re: Conditioning the honing wheel

Wahl clipper oil is 100% mineral oil (I checked the safety sheet: http://www.worldsgreatestshave.com/downloads/Safety_Info_on_Clipper_oil.pdf). I used this with great success on honing wheel initially. The Tormek manual states to apply 14ml initially and I would concur that this is about what it took to darken the leather uniformly.
