I am curious what "tried, tested and true" methods people have employed to mask the ugly brass tubes when making an acrylic pen that has a transluscent nature to it.
I have heard that white primer works, but what have you all used to cure this problem?
I obviously want to match the tube color with the blank color, but the ones I am making are the Craftsupplies ones under the names "White Marble Celluloid" http://www.woodturnerscatalog.com/store/Turning_Materials___Pen_Blanks___Pen_Makers_Choice _Celluloid_Pen_Blank___celluloid?Args=
and "Polar Ice Acrylic" http://www.woodturnerscatalog.com/st...rs_choice?Args=
I use epoxy, not CA, to secure my tubes to the blank, if that makes a difference.
Thanks.
