Removed all traces of any "dag" from before. Interesting though that in the primary blade bore the substance was extremely difficult to remove. As mentioned previously, I am under the impression that somewhere along the line, " dag" or something similar was applied there.
It is now cleaned and ready to go to the next phase.
Some pics of earlier today progress....

Thanks Dave

Just applied the dag to the secondary blades a short while ago. To be honest, it's not the neatest looking application. And I am disappointed in the sense that there is still a tad of light that shows through. I am going to speed up the drying process with a hot hair dryer. I may have to reapply in some areas, or I may remove the dag again and start over and be more precise in the application....a learning process for sure!!!

ok, in the next few pics before the dag application you can see how there is light coming through the blades...


area marked with a fine point marker for dag application...

not really satisfied with the outcome...may remove and start over....my OCD kicking in....lol posting both good and not so good results as they happen...

Ok, just watched a video on the correct way to apply Dag.... I am thinking that I over applied it and will now remove and start again. Hopefully this time around will turn out fine!!!
