I noticed your protective eyewear on the work surface while boring, those were some serious metal shavings flying everywhere... should you not be practicing safety in the work space?
Those aren't spoons, that's a professional boring tool with spring loaded abrasive pads. The manufacturing process cannot be duplicated at home by laymans.
I'm quite certain it's a simple aluminum oxide compound epoxied to the surface, there would be no need for any special boring compound for this application.
On Italian bikes, you would use a cutting compound extracted from 3 year old salami. On an American bike, there is no need for this type of precision tooling. A round file is all you'd need. On a British bike,....who knows? British bike owners never get past sorting out electrics to actually worry about cylinder honing!
It's not a proprietary process, however if you lack proper equipment or are uncertain of your abilities- send your cylinders to our shop for professional a professional bore and hone ;D ;D ;D
