cleaning cork ?

(1/5) > >>

coho13:
im looking at an hmx to buy but the guy i wanna bye it off or always uses pink pro-cured roe and the cork is hot pink now, is there anyway to clean this stuff off or will i have to get the cork redone? i was told rubbing alchol ? does that work any input will help alot  :)

DanJohn:
Ive read the best and really only way to clean it, is a light sanding. If the pink has soaked right in, you may need to stain it with a really non invasive light wood stain, but that is just my first idea, and dont know if that would be feasable, or if it would be harmful.

Ya! But it’s someone else’s stain. I like my own stains  :P
