Anyone interested in 83 Pace Arrow Tear down and Rebuild?

Here's a little trick that I have used over the years when using Lacquer. I wet a paper towel with Lacquer Thinner, and give the wood a quick wipe.

That tells me what the wood will look like with the Lacquer finish on it. The thinner dries in a matter of seconds, so it's not like you have a lot of time to have a look.
