Darryl, if you have the capability to take any pics with a close up lens to compare with these, it would be great!
Perhaps, at the least, you could examine it under a glass or loupe or linen tester and report back.
It's these pics, that sold me on the "coat the substrate side until the squeegee side glistens, then one stroke on the squeegee side" method.
Heck what's interesting is that in the olden days, it was not uncommon to have coaters with only sharp edges!
