HARVEY Report post Posted April 22, 2009 It's been a while since I've done this, but in doing it again, Yessir, I'm consistent! No denyin' that. But it coulda been worse. I went to pick up my container of casing solution. Went to shake it up, and . . . BINGO! Old Faithful's erupting! Got it on my shirt, pants and arms. BUT totally missed my project. And it could've been worse . . . it could've been oil dye. Remember, Folks (especially newbies out there), ALWAYS close up bottles and jars and DOUBLE-CHECK!

bruce johnson Report post Posted April 22, 2009 Another important tip might be something similar to what my friend David Morris has in his signature - something like - "Be sure not to drink the edge ink". Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TZHunter Report post Posted April 22, 2009 Harvey, "Casing Solution" ? I've always used just plain ole water. Is there something else (or something added to water) that makes it work better? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's for sure! And if you're hanging around saddle shops, beware of the open coke cans!!!!!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HARVEY Report post Posted April 22, 2009 Harvey,"Casing Solution" ? I've always used just plain ole water. Is there something else (or something added to water) that makes it work better? Hi, TZ. Yeah, this solution is part water, part Lexol, part baby shampoo and part Listerine. Probably, all in all, like Kickapoo Joy Juice (which Hidepounder probably keeps in open coke cans in his shop, I suspect). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

badger Report post Posted April 22, 2009 I had a friend who worked at a pathology lab, testing human fluid specimens for the Coroner's office. She used to keep her coffee mug on the bench next to the microscope. One morning while peering intently into the eyepiece, she reached out for her coffee.............. Goes across the street to Starbucks now. Badger Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
