Greetings again listees,
I just had a chance to go out to the shop and try the acetone
suggestion and have discovered something. The lighter color that I thought
was a sun bleached area is in fact and area without poor filler in it. I
have expanded that area with the help of the acetone and a scotch bright
pad. My question now whether to try and fill back in the filler that's
missing or strip it all out and start from scratch. Also, when I used the
acetone I must have had some silicone in the wood because it did seem to
want to repel the acetone on the surface. In other words, small dots would
dry faster than other areas of the wood surface kind of a thing, Very
descriptive wouldn't you say? :-) Anyway should I go for stripping all the
old filler out (how?) or just blend back in with some new filler? Thanks
for all your collective help!!!
