I assume you meant avoiding a heavy hand during the drying process, not "dying". I usually put card between paper towels and between stacked books. Do you use a different technique?
Typed that message pre-coffee...yes Bill, drying not dying...Yes paper towels and heavy books work fine...I, if I am only doing a couple, will dig out a couple screw downs. I still use the paper towels....The heavy hand is referring to blotting them dry when they first come out of the drink. It is easy to encourage flaking, especially if you try and "help" some of the stains........ I stay away from Q-Tips, opting for a cotton ball instead........
