When using our CN-01 Wood Write ,Ltd. Adhesive , always dip the blank in water and shake the excess out of the hole, then cement in the painted brass tube. This adhesive cures by absorbing moisture and there is no moisture content in Crushed Velvet as there is with wood. The water will also wash out any dust that may remain following the drilling process. No polishes are necessary to finish crushed velvet. Remember to cover the working parts of the lathe and motor when using these materials.
Complete instructions come with each package of crushed velvet blanks.
