Lightbulb Do you prefer blondes?

Now you too can have blondes! Grips that is!

Through an amazing new process recently discovered by Herr Hugh H. Clark, p.l.g.r.r.r., Renowned Luger Grip Expert, your new brunette Nill-Griff grips can become blondes!

This closely guarded secret process, developed in the deep dark woods of a Southeast Texas Swamp is now available to a few selected clientele.

These favored few recipients were selected by an involved process, whereby a variety of delictable morsels with customers names attached were left in the backyard overnight. Those not devoured by rampaging Armadillos in a 12 hour period were recovered. An email is going out to those remaining few lucky chosen ones!

Unfortunately, the Armadillos were more hungry than anticipated, and there were no names to be retrieved after the alotted time period.

Therefore, we are being forced to make a public offering of this unprecedented breakthrough.

See the attached "before" and "after" pictures for amazing examples of the results of this exciting new discovery!

Seriously, guys, Here is the method I used:

After checkering, scrub the grips good with Acetone or brake cleaner to remove the surface oil. Wash under running water to remove the solvent and let dry. Take a small container, lay the grips face down in it and cover them with a 50/50 solution of water and household laundry bleach. The grips will float in this solution, that is why they must be face down to get complete coverage, otherwise your results may be spotty. Let soak for 30-60 minutes, depending on the amount of "lightness" you want. Remove and wash thoroughly under running water. Place outside face up in bright sunlight until dry. Oil with Watco Natural Danish Oil Finish. It is important to dry them in sunlight, as the UV rays apparently enhance the bleaching process. <img src="graemlins/r.gif" border="0" alt="[king]" />
