Hello, I am having problems gluing my brass barrels into clear blanks. When I do so, I get air bubbles. I have tried CA glue, as well as 2-part epoxy and neither work. Does anyone have any suggestions for me? Thanks in advance!

I paint the inside of the blank to mask the glue. Depending on the transparency, i sometimes need to polish the inside hole to remove drilling scratches.

Love using lucite blanks and they usually go towards polishing and painting......


And the pant hides the tube too.
