I would wait for Doug on this, since he takes his lead from Graham on sartorial splendor and is more used to partially coated affairs. I would strip the whole assembly if possible as the process does an excellent job of prepping the substrate for re-coating.

Right now we're using Q-tips to do the rubbing and, besides having to pluck tons of fibers afterwards, we're also going through a lot of Q-tips. So the question is: is there anything else we can use, that will be more effective, cleaner and more economical?
