That is the question. I have read several posts on how to properly do a BLO/CA method. I've done it on a few pens and find it's fairly easy however I tend to apply the BLO first and then go to the CA. I have two questions about the BLO.
1. What are the schools of thought about which order to apply them?
2. I have read some people don't use BLO at all. What difference does the BLO make?
I have only done the CA first once, and I wound up messing it up. Now I did use a paper towel and I realize that it acts as an accellerant so I'm thinking if I use some dressmakers batting like in Russ's video that would help but I was just wondering what you CA Yoda's out there think.
