Re: [ATM] Stripping to re-figure?

Richard, Richard, Richard....

I'm in Australia and I can get those and more just for the asking, most
sales clerks don't know what their selling anyway so to them it's just
stuff to scan and get paid for....

I wouldn't use lye (NaOH) on a polished glass surface UNLESS you really
want to re-figure it, as hydroxides will attack glass, just look at stem
were that has had a few runs in a dishwasher, you start to get
discolouration and white stains, which are actual etch marks in the
glass....

Clear Skies, Thomas.

Ordinary caustic soda (lye, sodium hydroxide) works just as well
and has the advantage of not getting you arrested just for
asking for it outside of the good ole us of a.
