A Couple Of Lume Questions...

Before I waste too much C3 or too many dials / hands, here's a couple of questions...

- Do you remove the lume from hands before applying new lume - if so, how?! I've been using a stanley blade, but I don't want to scratch them. Also, what consistency should the new lume be - too thin and it seems to mess up! On the spare hand set I've been practicing on, the lume can get messy on the front. To avoid this, is it just a matter of mixing thicker lume / waiting for it to 'go off'?

- Do you have to do anything to a pearl before / after you lume it?

I've avoided using the diluter, and have mixed it half and half as instructed. To get a longer lasting lume, presumably you mix a larger quantity of powder, what's the ideal amount for a long lasting, bright lume?

To start with, I've got 3 Panerai dials + hands, one Omega PO and a Chronofighter - I'll start with the Pannies and hope I improve by the time I reach the Omega!! That's it for now, but any other tips will be appreciated.
