Thanks everyone. This confirms as I had thought, that it would work but then, why do it? I had tried to talk him out of it and I spoke not knowing, saying it could be "done", and he just kinda pushed for it in a devil-may-care kinda way to go ahead. If I get round to a test roll of this, with PMK or HD or the high energy formula that Craig directed me to, I'll scan and pass on the results.
