nuttyman,
I checked the air line yesterday and sprayed on white paper. Saw no water or dirt. I noticed when I degrease the billet with this purple power degreaser I can see what I can best describe as white like water marks in the billet. I air dry the billet and then wipe down with Acetone before I PC. This latest PC was the best one so far, only a few craters.

I'm getting closer, but not there yet.
