looking for thread on future floor wax
Hopining someone can point me in the right direction. There was a thread in reference to dipping clear parts in FFW to get a glassier/clearer look. Well, I cannot find it to save my life.....HELP.

It's easy:
1. Clean up part, removing any seams or blemishes, make sure it is clean of any polish and dust.
2. Pour some Future into a clean container, it doesn't have to be enough to submerge the part entirely, but enough where you can rotate the part to get it coated.
3. Using tweezers, grab the part by a corner or inconspicuous area, sometimes its better to leave a stub of sprue attached as a handle. Dip part in Future, turning as necessary to coat it.
4. Remove part slowly, allowing excess to drain off. Touching the edge of the container will pull most of the excess off.
5. Place part on flat surface to dry, some people put it on a paper towel to catch the excess, I don't. Cover with dust free bowl or similar item.
6. Come back 24 hours later to see how it turned out. If blemishes are found in the coating, strip off with Windex or rubbing alcohol and try again.
