I alway use citric acid. Perfectly safe, you can even drink it and cheap as chips on the bay  :daumenhoch:

Dont know what it will do to wood though  ;D

This is just a random picture from a photobucket search.
I remember seeing it on the museum though, looks like the guy used a plastic tub.
You would be ok with one of the round plastic plaster's tubs from b and q or whick's, i think the big one's cost around £8
I read OA is just wood bleach somewhere.

I have a frame I want to do and have found the answer in my kids room, Under bed storage :daumenhoch:
Think mine came from Ikea, But just had a look on there website and cant see any the same. Mine is just over 90cm long, 50cm wide and 18cm deep. If you have a longer  TT  it might be a tight squeeze.
