Using CA glue as a finish and when activator applied I end up with white
spots. I sanded down the pen blank again and applied CA glue without the
activator, and had no problem. Could I have been spraying too close to the
wood, or maybe air too cool? Open to any ideas.

This is quite common with activator. I have not been able to avoid it
completely. Have you tried spraying with activator first and then
applying the glue?

Anytime I see "MISMATCH!" in a path I know the sender should be ignored.

Hmmm - that's a good idea - I feel a new rule coming up.

I've never used activator with a pen.. The heat from applying it with

I use a lot of CA and some activator.. The aerosol works fine but I
never could use the pump kind without getting white areas..

It turns white when it converts early or fast. A light mist or
a breath will start it. Moisture in the room is enough.

I've seen water mist and oil mist.
