Hi Ron, Welcome to the group! EM's are the way to go, although I do have some SS games I always seem to enjoy the EM's the most. Once you have a couple in...

Howdy, I talked to another hobbiest a couple of nights ago and he mentioned using Mean Green with ME instead of alcohol because there was less chance of paint...
Mean Green would scare me a little bit on a PF. I know it will take the paint off a cabinet if you rub it long enough....But, if this other guy used it with a...
I would not suggest MG as a melamine foam wetting agent. MG is an acid. and it *does* take off paint now and then all by its self. i would continue with the...
Howdy, Thanks guys! I know the old saying "If it's not broke, don't fix it!" but I had to ask just in case I was missing something. Thank you very much, ...

Mark, I don't blame you for being freaked. First, I looked up your game. Super Cool and Pretty Rare. Just to add to your misery. I HAD a williams fantastic...
now this may be astupid idea, god knows I am the king of them, but what would happen if you put in one of those hand warmer packets before you wrapped it in a...
Hi Rob, Thanks for the input and validation of using a blanket and garbage bag. It's not a perfect answer, but it should reduce the chance of sudden...
Hi Mark, I'm here for you buddy! Deep breaths......inhale.....exhale......good :-) I understand your fears, remember this pin is located a little south of...

Hi All, Here is what I have done. Wrapped the glass in a blanket and trash bag as mentioned here, then I wrapped it in an inexpensive sleeping bag I bought...
