    I'd prefer a liquid that made it perfectly flat again.

    I usually just spray the WD on the stone and wipe with a cloth. Will have to try this "one weird trick"

    Water and paving slab slurry. Or, better, abrasive grit on plate glass. Oh, and elbow grease. A horizontal grinder is speedy. I have flattened a stonusing an abrasive wheel chucked in a bench drill.
