after you get the wax off there may still be a stain that might (I'm hedging) be removed with naptha and 0000 steel wool in the direction of the grain of course.

It also has millions of fingerprints. Would something like Simple Green diluted and a lot of elbow grease be my best cleaning and polishing method in this case? Another question just for information sakes; The finish on the lid, instead of the small alligator crackling, has very large and long sort of pattern similar to alligatoring on it. Causes for this???? Thanks Paul -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://ptg.org/pipermail/caut_ptg.org/attachments/20090330/2c55bae8/attachment.html>
