Barry, If it is soap stone and a smooth finish hone with 120 grit diamond 180 or 220 grit powders then seal with mineral oil.

Hello Partners,

Below is a photo of a black kitchen counter that has a honed finish and quite a few blemishes that look like etch marks and scratches. At first, I thought it is soapstone but I am not sure. I took a piece of a diamond-encrusted pad (800 grit) and tried it on a blemished area (by hand with water) and it did nothing.

If it is soapstone, what would I use to get the piece to have a consistant honed finish and what would I do to preserve it; ie, sealer (or oil?)

Thanks in advance for your help,

Barry
