    Goo- You're absolutely right about the Easy-Off, no matter what the experts say. Just make sure to buy the
    "Heavy Duty" version, not the "Fume Free" & be absolutely certain to rinse & scrub the wood w/plenty of clean water afterwards. I usually spray the wood down w/a heavy coating, let it work f/30 minutes or so, rub all the gunk off w/paper towels & then rinse the hell out of the stock w/warm water. For really grungy wood, a 2nd application may be required. Let the wood dry f/@ least 24 hours afterwards. Always wear eye protection, rubber gloves & have plenty of ventilation when doing this job, Easy-Off is VERY strong. Old clothes are a good idea, too, and lately I've even started wearing a throw-away filter mask. I've used this method on 9 or 10 stock sets over the last 10 years & have never encountered as problem with walnut, beech or mahogany & the wood usually comes out looking like new. HTH.
