  1. I don't use it on the binding since I think it will melt it. Scraping or sanding the binding and then masking it off is what I do. And I never used it on inlays.
  2. Check it out. You can see on the heel and up near the headstock that all the original lines are there; no wood removed. I use American made blue painter's tape to protect the areas where I don't want the nitro removed, and I put the acetone on paper towels and wipe the nitro finish away.
  3. I used acetone on a few of my Gibsons before refinishing them or when I wanted an unfinished neck. It works great. I can't stand it when guys sand down their Gibsons! In a couple hours I'll add a pic of a Flying V with a neck I just stripped. Don't leave it unfinished though, because then dirt and oils from your skin will get into the wood grain and make it look dirty and gross. Use gunstock oil on it after all the finish is removed. I use Birchwood Casey Tru-Oil.
