Well, I'm not sure that attempting to grinding valve seats with dry
carborundum grit would be very effective.
Just sayin'

    <p>Well, you can have a joint with dry grit/dust or with oiled
      grit/dust. I would still go for the latter. Perhaps if you use a
      spray like WD40 you may rinse the joint clean and lubricate at the
      same time. Problem is: WD40 lubricant does not last very long.</p>
