Is it okay to mix in your FO before you reach trace? There are some that can be alittle stubborn mixing into the batch. I can't seem to get the streaks out or the (graininess) (sp) out until I reach a very thick trace, even when I start blending them in at light trace.

I always add them to my cooled off oils. One less thing to remember or do.

You're welcome. Make sure that the FO that you use does not accelerate trace or seize.
