Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

You can touch up bare or thin areas with French Polish and they will blend into the rest of the finish without hurting it. French polish has been discussed on this site many times, and many guys have done what you are asking about. Search on the archived threads and you will find it.

I took my go to 16 VH rabbit hunting in the rain; same thing happened as the wood turned almost white. The wood was completely dry with no finish to repel the water. Did not show until it got wet. I worked Tru-oil every night in light coats on a small cotton patch into the wood, for about a week. Never took it apart but worked it carefully around all metal. The wood still looks original but now has some protection.
