Hello,
I have an Imanishi 220 that I use for thinning but it's really thirsty to the point of being off putting. I usually soak it for at least 30 minutes but it still needs adding water regularly.
I would just grab another S&G stone, but currently I have some other stone priorities.
Do you think if I seal the sides and bottom of the stone, is it gonna be any improvement? Also would I need to use a specific lacquer, like shellac or cashew which are often mentioned here, or any kind would do the job?
Thanks in advance!
