It cannot make a badly leaking seat good, but minor pitting/wear can be lapped out. The process removes a small, minuscule, microscopic, tiny little bit of metal (it is basically hand-grinding). A quick fine-lap (just a few spins of the valve) is great way to check on machine-shop regrinds.

Just clean the valve and head about 5 times after you do it to make sure no grit is left.
