I have a question. How long do any of you stand looking at lacquer, collodion, or keytop mix sitting on the surface of new, pre-plasticized hammers, waiting for it to soak in? The only difference between a 30 second soaking, and a 17 hour one is that capillary action hasn't soaked the entire molding through in the 30 second version, and they can be hung with water based glue instead of Duco. The solution has entirely permeated the felt of a virgin hammer well within 30 seconds. Ron N
