Default Black Oxide Process

Hi Just got the BO kit and it seems to work great. Just wondering if the shedding of the black is a good thing or not. After sealing and letting it dry overnight each time you touch it your hands are black. I tried wiping the part down to see if the black will stop but it seems to keep leaving marks on your hands.
I make flash suppressors and hope to use this process on them. This is a trial and need to know will this shedding stop and if not am I doing something wrong.
Degreased the part before soaking and also wire brushed as I like the rough look. Soaked it in the solution for 10 minutes, rinsed well and then soaked it in the sealer 10 minutes. Hung it to dry overnight. Color looks uniform but if it keeps coming off will it become uneven?
I noticed in another thread this same question was asked but never answered.

Thanks
