That's so true. Human touch is so difficult to be matched by machine. After
trying as much as I could to measure gum emulsion (probably because I am
preparing just a little amount each time), I found that before coating I still
have to "feel" the emulsion and add a few drops of water if needed....

Judy, please us know what this means! You "burnish" the emulsion coat?

TIA!
