Usually it does, but sometimes one needs magnification to see it.
Other times those who do this stuff have gotten quite acquainted with the method and can minimize gas bubbles I suppose.

Under magnification there are still tell-tale signs though.

Yes, it is a great news letter! I try to keep myself up-to-date with treatments and such.
Hopefully I'll remember to share a bit more here to.

Jupp, all well. Thanks.
All good on your side of the pond?
