Re: More TT Tips

Thanks for the tips, I will try the residue removal methods, but
Gasoline? That's a real big no-no as far as I am concerned. Acetone
works fine if you use enough of it and I have gone right from Acetone-
toner-removal to transfering again without and polishing.

Gasoline is nasty stuff - it's bad for the enviroment, it is very easy
to catch fire, it burns very quickly, and the smell stays around for a
long time after using. Acetone on the other hand is very mild by
comparison - after all, look at the active ingredient in your wife's
nail polish remover, it's acetone. I have worked around many
industrial solvents all my life and I don't mind messing with them,
but gasoline is just "not good".
