Now that you mention it I have had pin prick like surface defects. I put it down to mold dirt at the time. Couldn't see anything in the pin holes. But my bottom pour died a good while ago now and I still miss it.

Use a putty knife for mixing and scraping. It doesn't cool the melt, melt doesn't stick to it, the flat blade scrapes crud from the bottom real well. Plane off a bunch of curls from the scrap trim and 2x4 in the garage. First time I tried SD, I got it from the HW store, it was plywood/MDF dust and had rosin chunks that really screwed up the melt and clogged the nozzle.
One of the odder things I have used is Oak leaves in the fall/winter.
