What's up all,

I know everyone has their way, but thought I'd share a video on a way I've found success.

Cheers

Thanks for taking the time to share Nick. Best tip I've seen in nearly 25 years.

(Wish I would have seen your video prior to stripping a center pin rod last week...If I had it would have cut the clean time in half, and I'd still have functional finger and thumbnails!)

Thanks guys. Yea, I was the one that wrote it out Chuck, just thought I'd post a video of it as well. For those trying it out, I've found it a lot easier on gloss blanks than on matte or slate blanks.

Thanks for posting the video, Nick. Are the the tools you scraped with made of wood? Does it work better than plastic?

I might add that the painted finishes on some blanks may be removed with dna, so test somewhere on the blank where it doesn't matter before proceeding.
