Are you only taking it up through 8k? People here always seem to recommend and use up through 12k. I only have a 10k which works great for me, but I haven’t experienced anything different.

Sorry, I wasn’t very clear. With 0.85 I mean the Shapton Glass Seven 0.85 micron stone. The 8k is about 1.8 micron and their 16k is 0.92 micron so this one would be 16k+ rated. But they don’t rate their “seven” stones with a K number.
