Got one in which had the pickguard removed several years ago. The glue has clumped in lumos I think it was removed with heat and a putty knife or similar. Owner wants it replaced. Any suggestions to remove the glue as the glue lumps seems totally impervious to methanol and naptha. |

Just last week I had to clean old dried and dirty glue from both sides of a top. Two pickguards long gone, with the old glue having attracted all manners of stuff over the last 30 years. I used lots of naphta and finally this. Did it in a few passes, each time letting the stuff do its job for a bit longer so as not to disturb the underlying finish. It works great on water-based glues. I finally succeeded in getting the gunk out. Finished with naphta. https://www.stewmac.com/luthier-tools-a ... e-goo.html |
