Default Re: A Hopeless Mahogany Case ?

God awful weather has driven me inside. Have followed Colin's & David's advice and soaked the lid(pre -warmed) in meths then weighted it down on top of some kitchen roll paper. That, along with a good scrape, then repeat sanding from P80 up to P600 has improved things greatly. Yep, there are still some deep stains which no amount of scraping & sanding will remove. But thankfully the oil residue has gone. Next - more sanding with higher grade paper, then a stain & varnish.

Regards, David
