<DIV>Erik: Buy a big bag of kitty litter. Get a box big enough to put the
fuselage into. Now put a layer of kitty litter on the bottom of the box, fill
the fuselage wit the litter, Put the fuze in the box, then pour the rest of the
litter over the fuze. Now, let is sit for a few days. You might shake it up a
bit daily. When you remove the fuze it should be almost as oil free as when it
was new.</DIV>
<DIV>Seal the wood by painting with clear dope, or balsa rite before reapplying
the Monokote!</DIV>
