<p>[QUOTE="Kentucky, post: 8340598, member: 33176"]Different series of events here... I would first put it in some boiling hot water and let it sit overnight. Change the water for hot water from the tap and see if any of the gunk could be removed with a toothpick or even a soft toothbrush. Dry it thoroughly and then do the overnight acetone soak in a covered glass container. Let us see what it ends up like.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
