    Default 1978

    Hi

    I worked in a carpentry shop in 1978 . We sent the router bits out to be professionally sharpened . They always came back with that protective coating stuff Ray is asking about . It was a opaque semi - plastic type substance that you peeled off the bit .

    That stuff reminds me of the clear base that enamel paint has . After some time on the shelf , enamel paint tins have a hard clear layer on the top , and the heavier pigments sink down to the bottom of the can . Mike

    As an F/T apprentice in the early 70's one of my jobs was to look after the vat of hot protective coating fluid. In those days the product was called 'Peel Cell' (spelling may vary).
    Mm.

    I read somewhere that it can be peeled off and saved for re-melting. I have some in an old coffee can somewhere. I wonder where?

    Thanks GQ, and everyone for the tips.

    I've ordered 5lbs from here... Bar Lovers | Bar Ware and Gifts | Specialising in bar accessories, bar runners, bar fridges, beer fridges, games room accessories & great gift ideas!

    I'll post a report on how it performs when it arrives.

    Regards
    Ray

    PS.. Still unsure why it would be considered a "bar accessory"

    This sharp looking guy walks into a bar, orders a beer and gets a bag of chips. The bartender sez: "want some dip?"

    There's a joke there somewhere, but that wasn't it.

    Maybe its for sealing wine bottles for the DIY crowd?

    Hi All,

    Thanks to all who replied, the stuff arrived yesterday and today I had a chance to see how it goes.



    It's pretty much a non event to use, just melt and dip...





    It peels off clean, and has that rubbery feel, which I hope means it's got some shock absorbent properties.

    Regards
    Ray
