Did you use it straight out of the box, or did something to even out the brush? How much brush do you expose to brush? Do you brush just to one side or back and forth?

As per the instructions that came with mine, i had the brush out about 1/2 of an inch, i think, and then applied gentle pressure while moving it back and forth on flat surface to break the fibers apart from each other, then you let only 1/8 of an inch out while brushing, holding the brush straight, not on an angle.  Always, and this is important to achieve good results, using a one direction motion (example, you brush from left to right then lift pen and left to right again...).  Do not brush back & forth!!! You do not have to put a lot of pressure either.  What you need is......patience. It take some times to achieve a good job.  Anyways, it works for me and using my pen that way allowed me to get a uniform finish on all the watches I tried it on.  Hope it helps!
