Removing PVC-E Glue
By Paul Camps

Hi all,  I must say I'm a little surprised at this thread.  I thought
all you people in MMD land were exponents of hot glue but, having said
that, I suppose you've got your hackers over there just as I am over
here.  I don't know if white PVA is the same stuff, but I discovered
many years ago that exposure to mentholated spirits would soften PVA
and turn it into snot, which of course was easy to remove.

I think one of the previous postings mentioned alcohol, which of course
is what mentholated spirits really is -- sold many years ago as "White
Meth's" and as such was consumed in large quantities by tramps and
bums.  Later a purple dye was added to discourage this, although it
does taste just the same with the dye.

Cheers, as I slip giggling under my PC workstation,
Paul Campssssssss
