I had a certified trimmer come and trim Garth and advise me. She
said to rasp so that the water line bears the weight. I guess that is
what you are doing. She also sold me somne White Lightening. you mix
it with vinegar and put in the Davis boots, tape with duct tape so
the gasses can work to start healing the separation. it kind of
smells like bleach.
someone said they are using bleach. how much and how to apply.
