SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 09/14/2013 3:54 pm I'm guessing the reverse pics are labeled backwards? I see PVC on it. On the top image (the "after," I guess), look at the leaf above and left of the O in ONE. Looks like it needs more attention. Hit it with a toothpick while soaking. Report this Post to the Staff
