Paul, I tried acetone on the "boathouse gun" and was only partially sucessful. One day while I was working on it, I stopped to do something else and in doing so I set the stock in the bed of my truck. When I came back a few minutes later, the heat had leached enough oil out of the stock that it was totally covered in oil. I wiped it off with an acetone rag and did it again. After about 3 or 4 more passes the oil was completely removed. I continued on with the stock refinishing and I have never seen any evidence of oil coming to the surface. If I can find some before and after pictures of the stock, I may write an article for Parker Pages on this one. You do have to remember that I was working in Tampa, Florida sunlight. Jim Garrett
