The effect builds as you work.
The effect builds gradually — the most rewarding product in the range. Between passes, rinse the blade with dish soap under warm-to-hot water — the heat matters, as it's what lifts the fat-based film cleanly — and dry it before checking the surface, so you read the true finish rather than a wet sheen.
The same product, two applicators, three measurably different results.
Applied with the finger until the grain is no longer felt; for more effect, a cotton pad and a single small drop of oil (any food-grade) reduces haze and lifts detail further.
Three finishes show its range on the same blade. Worked lightly without oil, it lifts detail while leaving a soft, bright and silvery surface.
Carried through several passes, with the oil droplet and a piece of cotton it draws the whole blade toward a dark, detailed and captivating mirror.
Same product, three finishes:
KREAM Detail used with oil.
KREAM Detail used without oil.
KREAM Detail used with oil on the clad, without oil on the core. The contrast becomes negative, like on swords or honyaki.
