What exactly is barrel lapping?

Clearly its a way to smooth out the bore of a rifle, but how? Do you just take jewelers paste and a patch/jag and essentially polish the inside of the barrel or what??

Soak a mop in Flitz and have at it?

Is it that easy? So the lead takes the rifling in its shape and buffs as it passes back an forth.
