In Response To: No speculation here... (Pete Rudie)

Wow!!! that list of solvents IS a mouthfull and I WAS thinking of using this indoors. Now I would definitely look for a nice day and head outdoors for the "Soakin'". Pete you've convinced me about getting rid of the "film" before epoxying over.

Anyway Dr. Rot wrote me right back as seems to be his usual way:

"I am going to go through the thread item by item and when I think I have
something to say that might clarify things a bit, I will respond on the
thread. Thanks for bringing all this to my attention."

I wrote back and said I am sure he is busy, so no rush from us. Just want the oppertunity to hear him take these issues by the "horns" and clear things up if he can.
