I couldn't find the original thread on this, and I want to add one. My daddy always said "You learn something every day." I learned this trick today. Pick a nice, boiling hot day, one where you want to be walking around without a shirt. Now go out to the shop, shirtless, and pick up a gallon of Aircraft Paint Remover up onto a nice high work bench, so you have the arm pits up, and undo the cap. What I learned is how fast an old man can run ...if he REALLY feels it's to his advantage.

Or stick a paint thinner rag in your back pocket and not remember it for an hour or two.
