Ordered some U-Beaut water stains today for finishing. Can't wait to mix a mean orange.

Hey Stan I've used the stains on my IB-7 with great success. Very high concentration colour if you apply straight from the bottle.
This top is absolutely covered in glue. I'm going to have to head down to the shed and get some wire brushes - bugger.
cool, have you used their clear?
damned glue... hope it comes off
