There has been a lot of discussion about the accelerator causing a white precipitate on the finish of a CA finished pen. I personally have never seen this until just recently. Upon further examination, I noticed that the accelerator that caused the white spots was a heptane based accelerator. I have always used acetone based accelerator in the past. When I refinished the same pen and use the acetone based accelerator, I did not see the white spots.
If you have been getting these white spots, is you accelerator heptane or acetone based (check the MSDS, it should tell you what the base is). Could the this be the cause? Please post which base accelerator (no brand names please) you were using when you got the spots.
