I think it was @cotedupy who suggested that I use one side for finishing (the top burnished side) and the other side for slurry honing. I lapped the underside (for slurry) flat ready for my next go with this Adaee #12000.
I found that I needed to be able to quickly differentiate between the two sides. All edges on this whetstone have been broken (chamfered) at about 45°. To easily differentiate between the two sides, I used a black Sharpie to "paint" the chamfer all around the slurrying side.
Works well.
The way this stone doesn't want to wear, the Sharpie ink should not require replacing for many years.
