              We have used your method with some wall paper remover but we 
always seem to have some problem with the old finish especially on the ends 
of the damper block. Frequently we must refinish which is time costly.After 
reading this post next time I will try just hot water. We had specially made 
metal trays made that we place side by side . The dampers sit astride the 
trays ,one damper in each tray and then the hot water and some wall paper 
remover  is poured in but I,m now thinking that the acidic acid is the 
problem with the finish. I'll find out soon enough. you could try the same 
thing and post back. I think the stains are apparent only on dampers that 
aren't dyed black but are just the natural wood color. Is that what you meant 
by stains?
