I usually wet the boards down in the evening, and let them dry overnight. As Bob said, the chemical needs a chance to penetrate into the wood. |

Are there any reasons not to use super soft? I don't mean to hijack the thread, but I thought that for those who have no experience with it, ( like me ) some guide lines for it's use would be helpful. Alex |
