Wood Engraving Discoloration

[mylesmich...@gmail.com]

I don't know if i am just rediscovering what more experienced users already knew, but i figured i would share just in case. I found out that the discoloration of the wood around engraved wood is actually just caramelized sap and that simply wiping with vinegar removes it quickly. I left a half gallon in the cabinets next to the frig if anyone needs some.

Thanks for the vinegar, Miles!    It cleaned up the gears quite nicely.
