So I just turned my first acrylic pens (two Sierras), the first one being acrylic acetate bought from Ed. I backpainted the blank white with Krylon Fusion and that seems to have worked because I can't see the tube. However, I did something else to the blank that has caused a problem. Inside the blank, I've either fractured it or scratched it somehow. The outside surface is completely smooth and glossy, so this has to be inside. Look just to the right of the blue wavy line and you'll see a series of faint horizontal white lines stacked up like woodgrain. If you look towards the bottom crossing the wavy blue line, you can see some heavier lines at a steeper angle. In certain light, these lines are all VERY visible to the naked eye.
What on earth did I do to this blank?
