I read more of the thread over on AK today. It  is very interesting! I think I will try it.  I'm glad I read more though, I would have used the Titebond 1 that I have. Supposedly that glue shrinks and cracks when it dries in this application, so Titebond2 is necessary which does not shrink. See page 34 of the AK thread.

There are before and after waveforms, showing removal of the pops.

Rich, by removing pops, is it just that it removes embedded micro-gunk or is it actually dealing with scratches and the like which often cause pops?   (I know, I could read the entire thread but I'm just too lazy  :duh

I'm letting the glue dry. We'll see if it works.
