Humidity...good to know. Debbie has already suggested that I try applying the stuff again in the house this time, upstairs where I do my radio repair work. If humidity is a factor, I think I will try it.

I looked over my 38-14 and 39-7 cabinets this morning before I left for the Lexington radio auction. The pores are partially filled...I can see the stuff in the pores...but when I rub my finger across the grain I can still feel the pores, as if they are still open.

This is all very frustrating, to say the least. I'm starting to wonder if there is some sort of black magic involved, and you guys who do this are holding back secrets from the rest of us. Icon_lol

Ed, that is very kind of you to offer that and I will take you up on the offer. I'll send a PM later with my shipping info. Thanks!
