    AH….good!

    Then I guess all you need to do is clean it. Lacquer thinner will work as a cleaner, but is pretty expensive, for what it is (a blend of acetone, toluene, alcohol & amyl acetate). For what you’re doing, naphtha & acetone are cheaper and work just as well. Naphtha loosens & removes any grime; acetone really cleans the surface of oils.

    Wear nitrile gloves…..the oil in your fingerprints can undo all the degreasing work you do.

    EDIT: Hey…are you the same JimmY that built the Glen-L Squirt? I’m Mark-NJ that built the Ski-Tow….
