    No offence would have been caused. It would be sacrilege to attempt myself.. On a 10 top too

    Lacquer/varnish damage

    Thanks Boogie. I do agree, not only do i think you're right, but your boys are the proof, and i would rather take the same approach. But then 3 years ago more boys turned up, twins.
