It worked without mishap for me, as I'd gone through solvents and 
boiling first. And we rarely used that old dishwasher in any case.

On a related note, after some 9 years or so of use, I've recently had to 
flatten my coarse Norton stone ( one side only ) using 36 grit SiC 
flooring sander paper spray-glued to an old bathroom cabinet mirror 
door. I'm leaving the other side hollow for cambered irons.
