This was going to be a 102 but it got WAY into the weeds so I decided to make an intermediate video between this and the 101.
Abrasives
1) Alumina
2) Silicone Carbide (SiC)
3) Diamond Plate
4) Diamond Resin
Binders
1) Soft: Usually soaking. Faster at removing material due to breaking down. Needs flattening and has best feedback. Concentration of abrasives varies widely. Generates a slurry that gives an even cloudy finish.
Examples: King KDS 1K, Suehiro Cerax, King Neo, Cheap amazon stones
2) Hard: Slower cutting but handle handle harder steels better. Usually splash-and-go. Tend to polish more for their grit rating compared to softer, soaking stones. Will load up some.
Examples: Naniwa Pro/Chosera, Nanohone, Shapton Pro and Glass
3)Plates: Abrasive is added directly to surface. No flattening and leave very deep scratches.
Examples: DMT diamond plates, Worksharp diamond products, Sandpaper
4) Resin or Metal: Slowest cutting and will load up due to binder not breaking down. Can't absorb water so they are splash-and- go. Don't dish and leave a nice satin finish. Often abrasive is diamond.
Examples: Venev resin bonded diamond, Naniwa resin bonded diamond
Steel
1) HRc: High hardness requires high concentration of abrasives first then harder binders hold up a little better.
2) Carbides: Higher carbide volumes need higher abrasive concentration. Type of carbides will decide what abrasives to use. High chromium carbides alumina and SiC work with SiC being slightly better. High vanadium carbides requires diamonds to shape because VC is harder than either alumina or SiC.
Desired Results
1) Choose abrasive and binder type depending on the steel chemistry, heat treat and end use. Choose final grit to match your use and then backtrack to your starting grit using the rules of thumb in the 101 video.
