I use CA for two types of projects: for small items that need a shiny, durable surface (eg, pens and bottle stoppers) and ad a stablizer for punky wood. Occasionally, I will have a larger item that requires a great quantity of CA application. Like today: a customer brought me a large piece of buckeye, which is a light and fiberous wood t almost like balsa.
Normally, I'd apply it with a Q-tip, which almost always leads to brush lines that need sanding out. Today, it so happened that there was an old Windex sprayer on the workbench and I thought, "Why not?"
It worked! Sprayer is toast, but the CA went on evenly with no brush marks or runs. Thought others might like to give it a try.
