Ok, I had just finished re-glueiing my skins when I dropped one into the newspaper, of course it fell glue side down. Probably 10% of the skin is covered with newspaper now. Any brillliant or otherwise suggestions?
Hey Chris- I would try applying heat over the newspaper with a heating iron. Once the glue is hot and viscous you should have no trouble removing the newspaper, just like when you remove old glue from your skins when re-glueing. You'll probably want to add additional newspaper over the area before applying the iron, just so the iron doesn't come into direct contact with the glue. Hope you enjoyed a nice day up in the hills today, it's about time we get a little snow up here.
The toluene in the skins caused them to up in flambe. Guess it's time for another pair.... :shock:
