First structuring some dents with the heat of incense sticks and pressing.

QuoteMay be i`ll relight one of the sticks now
do so......It must have a linear effect on the amount and shape of the dents ;D ;D
Jacq
The first thing that came to mind was .. "Good job on the car..." .. second thing that came to mind was .. "HONEST OFFICER!! It's INCENSE!!"
Unfortunately all the photos have been deleted!!!!!!
Goodness- been away on vacation and too busy watching the Tour de France. But now I'm back posting and find fresh instructions how to use cannabis to weather French railcars! Splendid! Magnifique! Chapeau to Sven.

I have been watching the Tour everyday for the past three weeks. Too bad about Andy Schleck. He raced an outstanding Tour and missed winning by exactly the time he lost when his chain fell off (and the other guys seemed to forget about good sportsmanship). -- Russ
Hi all,
first a reassuring remark to the controversial subject "INCENSE STICKS".
Take it easy! It´s a legal merchandise without any banned substances. ;)
So, let´s keep the point and forget the french car, it has a dental treatment ::).
Jacq, you´re right! It was a little too much :'(
Outwards curved dents on a gondola
scrubbed cellulose-acetat-sheets (normally used for spectacle frames)
