Right, lots of time on the 1k :-) I was think the other way, make it look pretty, then hone it, not hone it, make it pretty and color it red at the same time
If I put an edge on it , then try to clean it up I will most likly bleed all over it.

You do what you want.
Not that I have done the same.
BIG WASTE OF TIME FOR ME
YMMV
