<p>[QUOTE="J Dagger, post: 9495036, member: 10944"]I almost put it under water immediately after getting the big dirt off. So happy I didn’t. I hadn’t yet seen the open backs. I then read water could destroy the foil backings of old paste stones. Luckily I didn’t water it down and they weren’t closed back paste. Could have been a disaster. I was going to do it all with a toothpick but I suppose at this point it couldn’t hurt to hit it with the combo you suggested. Thanks[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
