    I've seen numerous references to this technique, but nothing very specific about how to do it. I'm primarily interested in clearing up some of my ramps. I thought I'd first wash them, then hit them with some Plexus, but if that doesn't do the trick, I need to take it to the next level. Is flame polishing something a novice should even try? If so, how do you do it, what should be avoided, and, other than a melt down, what are the risks?

    Quoted from LTG:

    Keep flame moving, back and forth, circular, and don't hold in one place.

    Quoted from NM:

    Order Shaggy's "Lost In The Zone" DVD; he shows you how to do it.

    Thanks guys. I'll definitely practice first. I need to borrow back Shaggy's DVD from the friend I gave it to. I don't have a TZ but he does and I never watched it.
