    i wanted clear drying, slow setting and easily removeable should someone feel a need down the road to strip and recover them. It's very easy to clean up while working. Waterproof isnt as important to me, I'm probably on the planet for a few more years, after that, it's someone elses worry!

    Agree w the Clorox and water mix remedy. 6 yrs ago I purchased one of my FWs in an estate sale. The case had an intolerable moldy smell. I was tempted to trash it. A plumber suggested I use bleach w water in a spray bottle and lightly spray (like a mist) and to fan dry it 6-8 hours. Told me to repeat that until mold was eliminated.. Sprayed and fan dried for 3 days. It did clear mold and smell.
    I store the case in my hall closet w top open.
