I used to buy my two part mix in five gallon buckets. So you could say I poured a little of the stuff.
Each time I did a pour, I spent a few minutes vacuuming myself, including my hair. It made all the difference, since, like you say, every speck shows.
My pours were timed so I could use a toothpick to grab the occasional fleck. After it was pulled, the mix would self level. Of course, you only have minutes to get the mix down and pull the flecks.
