So... that just means you're used to not doing anything with it. A weekend without working on or motoring the Z is no big deal to you. It's a different story for us DD fiends/addicts

Ask Ms. Pint if the roller is decent

She gave me a couple of 10 sq ft samples, each of which came with a small roller with which other people seem to have had minimal troubles

I may run out of alcohol for cleaning though... other than drinkable forms, it appears to currently be in scarce quantity in our house. Can I just use something like Krud Kutter Degreaser?

Me neither. In my head I sound like Jimmy Page when I fire up my tube amps and vintage guitars. In reality I sound like two cats fighting.

I learned to play the guitar using Jimmy Page riffs

I am certainly no Jimmy Page, but I'd like to think that both of us sound a little better than the audio track of a neighborhood cat fight

One thing that really helped my guitar play was a 12 string acoustic with electric pick up. As long as it was in tune, just strumming chords in random sequence was incredibly melodious

Degreaser should work just fine.

That is one type of guitar I don't own. No 12 strings. I do own several of almost every other kind though. The latest is a nice Breedlove acoustic I bought nearly 2 years ago. Not vintage, but still a thing of beauty.
