The only time I tried the acetone and followed by alcohol remedy the stock became so dried out after the alcohol all dried that it split horribly at the wrist. I left it laying on the bench for several days to thoroughly dry, and when I returned it had split all by itself. Luckily, it was a cheap project gun, but it made me "gun shy" of this treatment. Pun intended. Nothing is foolproof, I guess,
, and many others have used this treatment successfully with no problem. Just thought I'd offer that personal experience.
