I was reading the post about using the laser pointer. Well I tried that and found some spots where the Veil was not on good enough. SO I put on a second layer of Veil and it covered the spots. Well on the one side that looked good, I thought I'd make things even and put a layer on that side too. Big mistake or was it? It was but then when I tried to wipe off the 2nd layer the 1st layer came off. Well that wasted Veil but then applied a new primary layer and it looks better than it did at first!
I tried 2 brushes. A Foam Brush that had applicator hairs on it. That worked ok at first but then messed up the second coat.
Then I bought a 3" brush and trimed it down so it fit just inside the Veil tub.
Worked perfect and made the coverage so much easier.
I recommend that everyone get a larger foam brush and trim it down. Less running of the Veil and less strokes needed
Also, I noticed that appling the Veil at 83 degrees worked out much much better than at 50-70 degrees. Went on smooth and streak free!
