Ok, the stocks have been in the acetone bath for about 4 days. lots of oil has come out, but I took them out to see what the wood looked like after some evaporation today and parts while the neck/checkering has the stripped bare grayish wood look to it, the cheek pieces of the stock still have a darker smooth look to them almost like they still have finish on them.

I have been turning the wood over 2xs a day so I find it hard to believe the acetone hasn't removed the finish. Just don't want to start soaking them in the alcohol before they are ready.
