When I used to fly radio controlled planes a lot we had a trick for drying
fuel soaked balsa wood.  The fuel had oil in it and the only thing to dry
the oil out was a product called, interresting enough, K2R.  It is sold in
grocery stores as a stain remover.  I believe it was made for laundry, or
was it carpets?

It shouldn't hurt the epoxy but it will bleach the wood.  I've used it on
full military rifle stocks soaked in cosmoline.  On the stocks, it took
hours of sanding to get the color to show again but it didn't hurt the wood.
 Only took out the cosmoline and the color.

I checked the archives on this but couldn’t get a definitive answer to the
use of Clorox on plywood.

I have 20 year old KR project that has some moisture damage to the boat (my
site will show you what stage I’m in: http://home.comcast.net/~rickcoy/RAF
html).

Some of the varnish is worn away and some of the stains look like they might
be some kind of mould. Is Clorox safe on glue joints? Do I use it full
strength, then rinse -- or leave it on?
