The second coat burried them. I always take a new one and ball it up with gloves on and work it to remove some of the extra tack. I ran this cloth over the base as lightly and fast as possible and it still made tracks. I'm gonna try the surgical blues next.

Brad J.;11066 said:I use the premium ones that are yellow in color also. It's always been a problem for me. This is why I usually don't tack the base. I usually use them for tacking the sealer and they work good for that. I don't usually bust out a new one either. I like them when they look like a two week old pair of underwear because they aren't as sticky.
