A lot will depend on what you are trying to do. If just need to cut the glaze and get the cross hatching back most any flexable hone will work. IF you have a ring groove at the front/top of the bore that needs dealt with first. If it is very severe and not removed it can break top rings. Once ring groove is done then if you are out of round you should really have the cylinder bored first then honed. If not out of round then just hone with one of your choice. Do set the bore vertical for the best results. Left laying on it's side will not hone true as the hone will remove more on the bottom. A Sunnen hone will Keep you closest to round if you need some out of round cleaned up on a slightly oval bore. It is a rigid hone set to fit slightly tight on the small sides and will be slightly loose on the larger sides. Would need adjusted as the hole rounds up. Not intended to be used in place of having a hole bored if not round but could get a couple thousandths probably with it. My brother used to use one on press repair where they could not take the part off to bore it. Hones need to have a lubricant wash as they work, best clean. then washed out with some diesel fuel,solvent or even mineral spirits.
