I see that the conventional wisdom for certain types of blanks is to paint the tube or "reverse-paint" the blank, which I assume means to paint the inside of the blank. Doesn't this affect adhesion with your CA glue? I thought that was the whole point of scuffing up naked brass tubes. Or are you still supposed to scuff the tubes after they have been painted?
For tubes that come pre-painted, should they still be scuffed, or no?
Also, what sort of paint should I use? If I am painting The Tubes white, should I just get a can of white Rust-Oleum? Or is there something else?
