Not sure what you mean by transitional error, all Wide AMs are the near FG.

Thanks for the schooling John. That's why it's good to get others POV. I appreciate the help always. Once the acetone dip is done I'll post the pic if anyone wants to take a look and give me their take on it I appreciate that too. Thank you everyone for their input and I'm sure I'll be posting again. ABRNE

Looks like the 88 rev, and not the 89.

Agreed that looks like glue residue. Waiting for the bath results.

Not sure yet that, that is doubling. Notice how it only shows up under the glue residue? That could be some kind of light refraction and the angle of the light at the time the image was produced.
