Default drying out fuel soaked balsa

Justin:

I have a friend who bought a fuel soaked airplane. He used Bacardi 151 to remove the fuel. I know, it sounds crazy and I thought he WAS crazy but it worked. He stripped the covering off and poured it all over the plane. When it dried, the wood was as good as new. I still think it was a waste of good, mind-altering substance
