I make a lot of Cabs and my eyes aren't near as good as they used to be. Just like Toby Keith, I'm not as good as I once was 
I kept checking my cabs for scratches and going through all six wheels and thinking --this one is going to turn out perfect, then I would take it in and check under another light, and, of course, right on top or on one side would be a scratch or rough spot. Then it would go back in the "do over" tray.
Now, I go through the first three wheels, {I usually work on 20 or 30 at a time} Then I take them to a good light location, dry them real good and get out my magic marker. I paint every spot that needs a little more work. Then I go back and when I have ground out every bit of the marker, they are then ready for the last three wheels. It has saved me a lot of time and aggravation.
I wouldn't use the marker on soft or porus rock or on a deep pit that you know will never grind off. If you do, it will be there forever.
Hope this helps someone
