Cleaning ceramic sharpening rods

[golfish]

Hey fellas, I'm curious what you guys use to clean these.

I've read good things about Bar Keepers Friend...

Thanks

Any scouring powder will do the job. I have had my ceramic stones since the early 80s, and I have used any scouring powder that was under my kitchen sink.

Comet cleanser and a green Scotch-Brite pad, the green pads have a polishing abrasive added to them.

That's what I was 'taught' back in the 80s by a guy who owned a cutlery store. He showed me how he cleaned his and I've done it that way with ceramic rods/stones since. Comet has been my usual primary. Haven't had any problems.
