Any tips for uncovering glue before staining?

May 22, 2005 4 Replies

This months wood magazine says that you can use Naptha to uncover any glue on projects before staining. Has anyone used this method? I tried to find naptha in the stores and all i can find is VM&P Naptha. is that the same? Are there any other tricks?



Thanks

The only "trick" is to use a solvent to highlight the grain and show up the glue where there is little or no absorbence. Paint thinner would be as effective and cheaper.

Another trick is to use a UV-fluorescent additive in the glue. Blacklight it to find where to clean up. Google it.
