Rob probably does as well but I don’t recall. Both don’t use all the PE, only what feel is necessary. From there they build from the centerline inside out and from the bottom up. Pre planning of what the expected end result is and working backwards is important as to not walk over…

When you have found the correct center, apply gentle pressure so that needle creates a depression in the part and this helps prevent slippage.

You can also use a marker to get the point, then use a pin.

Yes, Quick Shine (Future) is a good way to “glue” parts and not mess up the surface.
Liquidtex Gloss gel medium is another option, I like in place of super glue and could have worked in instance as well. Tried clear and tough, just not fast.
