Please expand on its use. After waiting the hour after application and then
scraping the yucko away, you are left with a bare veneer surface with a
little bit of drying stripper/finish mush. How do you do final cleaning of
the veneer? Do you wash it with water? How do you get the mush out of all
the grain? Thanks.
