Great write-up!  Thanks!  I have two questions.

1. What is the purpose of the accelerator?  Does it just speed drying, or
is the accelerated CA different from air-dried CA in some way?

2. Why can't epoxy be dremelled and polished the same way?  Never tried
it, but I currently use epoxy for everything.  I like the black a lot.

Thanks again!

Tom
