lapping the ww

i was wonder,
-i just got my ww alum top and i noticed that it is pretty flat, but i want a mirror finish and i when i lapped my sp94 i used regular water and dishwasher fluid, it didn't cause discoloration or anything, but i was wondering if there is anything better i should use casue im afraid that this will casue is to oxidize.
am i right or will this not happen??

thanks

just use pure alcohol & a lint free cloth and wipe it down as soon as your done lapping it...

no soap...

Don't use water or soap. Use something like lacquer thinner to float the tiny metal flakes away as you lap. It's what I use and works great.
