Please share your secrets oh, grand and powerful Boats!

thank you very much my man for your reply on my Iron duke. The best burnishing tool you can use on card kits and its worked form e for yuears on end in the old fashion Teaspoon or the end of a butter knife. Make very certain you burnish after the glue has dried. or you will shift the glued part and leave a smear on the finished skins let them dry when dry burnish and dont be bashfull on applying presure on the burnishing toool card models are tougher then nails and they have thier weakness too. thank you very much for your reply.
