2. I found that when coating hollow point bullets it is very difficult to get the color into the hollow point, will there be any adverse effects if I increase the amount of acetone considerably to allow the Hi-tek to better flow into the hollow point? In order to get coverage into the hollow point I had to increase the mount of acetone to the mix, I then increased the amount of mix going on to the bullets to get the same amount of Hi-tek onto the bullets, since the Hi-tek powder is essentially reduced from the original recipe . I basically am applying the same amount of coating just having to tumble a little longer to allow the extra acetone to evaporate. The bullets are getting nice light coats including the inside of the hollow point.
Thanks
