Well hell, if they explode on the end of my gun it wont be as surprising as an exploding pv... :laugh:

I wouldn't be too certain. Lights, without blow out points, can be like grenades, with bits and pieces of metal and glass (or plastic) flying in all directions.

I would be pretty surprised, no, shocked, if anything I was using "blew up."

I use Howard SWAX16 SUNWAX. It was recomended to me by a fellow Reonaut because my woody is purpleheart and it is supposed to help save the color from UV darkening.

I use the Howard's on all my Woods and especially the inside, as I live at the "Home of the Swimming" REOs. For a little bit harder finish you can use clear Briwax paste. I put that over the Howard's on some of my Woods. (Okay, I have a bunch of REO Woods and one Phidias)

Be certain to keep the Howard's out of the catchcup and feed tube. I literally soaked a bunch of Woods, in a bowl, with the juice bottles off. It has taken lots of cleaning the catch cups and feed tubes with hot alcohol to get all the Howard's out. Howard's smells wonderful, it easy on most peoples skin, is great for our Wood mods, but not a very nice vape.

Keep in mind that some of the lighter woods can change colors from UV, also. Even with filtered UV Scandinavian Fir darkens to a gold and American Cherry will go to a deep Reddish color. There are many other woods, used for our PVs that change, too. American Holly, the whitest American Wood, will yellow, like Ivory does, if not protected from UV. Virtually all of the red, pink, orange woods, used in PVs will change colors, when exposed to UV over time.

BTW.... my "swimmers" have survived, with no damage, because of deep soaking/coating of Howard's, on inside bare wood, and only letting a few select woods get anywhere near water.

Way 2 go Kar,,, I snagged 2 of them myself,,,, also want to grab a few of the Kick Modders boards when they are released, both of these little kick accessories are also going to turn bottom feeders into monsters like bottom feeders on Steroids, whatever you put these in will make your Mod just run super, having 2 Darwins I know this and they just cant be beat, only other things that make it that much better is having TrippyTip's a Top your Mods for the extra Best working and looking PV's on the earth :2cool:
