Flushing over-lacquered hammers

[Alan McCoy]

Well, no I'm not the guilty party, but the client is not willing to foot the
bill for the real solution. So I'm off to explore in the land of lacquer.

    Well unless you are the one that just applied too much lacquer & are
trying to back track then agree with the toilet treatment suggested by
others. I'm sorry, reality being what it is,...is real.  It just doesn't
work & if it does you don't get very far. Or you may be able to get the
needles in to create some psuedo change but don't expect miracles & if you
do it's better to be lucky than good on that day.KWIM ?
 If you ARE the one in control from the git go & the juice, be it plastic,
lacquer,or  whatever, then It is possible to wash some of it down lower in
the hammer. Most of the time toooo much lacquer has been applied from the
git go by inexperience & anxious voicer syndrome.

Oh, Mr. Erwin? Somebody just called your number....tell 'em how it's  
done, brother.
