I wouldn't have even tried, I got enough crap for baking rocks and stuff after bleaching.

I never got much crazing, but all my joints were just plain old straight edges. I wonder if different suppliers have different grades? I got my tubing at a local shop, not IPP

Thanks for the input though.
The guy at Ipp said that his tubes where cast and not extruded... I asked, I thought thats what he said anyways?? I would have to double check but im pretty sure he said cast.
