First comment do not use normal lapping compound like you get for doing valves its to hard and will impregnate the CI ways , think how diamonds are lapped you press diamond dust into a CI lap and use that

Do it correctly blue it and scape it to a fit or take easier route and use time saver compound ,this stuff breaks down to a non abrasive compound and is use to lap in gears in large gear boxes there is no need to clean it up after use

This link will show you the stuff yes it's dear and its a UK link but I am sure you will find it in your location on the big ball

It may only be a badly adjusted gib ease it off a wee bit and see how you go
