Well, it is kinda true. I contacted my local dump and was told that they have plenty, but due to regulations and safety, I can not have one.

I hated it, but understood with all the crazy ...

Ah, that is beginning to make some sense.

I wish that I could pull more than one, but the one I pull will need clean up and final sanding. Maybe, making a 1st detail vac form and setting that asid ...
