Rub it, spin it, get down and Boogie with it... whatever works!

A lot of these compounds come in a somewhat liquid state in order to facilitate the penetration into the crevices, but that's just temporary: the compounds quickly loose their fluid part, and settle in nicely. Many report this as "curing time" and lasting up to 3 days.

What's more important is making sure that the surface is lapped and cleaned. Nail polish remover is *BAD*, because it contains oils, so straight acetone is better. A cleaning alcohol should work well too, but still watch out for that oil content.
