If you live in California, you cannot buy Glyptal locally. The VOC's are too high, but for what it is, there is NO substitute.

Karen,

If it were a new pan, I'd probably vote for waterglass. But, like you, my
Ragusa pan (never yet installed by me) is used. I wouldn't have ANY
confidence that waterglass would penetrate and cure properly. Instead,
I've cleaned it as thoroughly with degreasers and pressure washing as
possible. It is, right now, undergoing 3 hours in a oven at 500*F. I'm
expecting that to bake out enough of the old ATF to enable glyptal to stick
to it. Checking sources for that glypal has been a shock -- $21.51 for 225
ml ( only problem with the glyptal is it's insulating. Not a biggie, [/color]
