I was young and all my friends were like "dude can I take it out of the case?" haha being the cool guy I said "why sure!!!" But still to this day no toning. I have a reggie UDA ball tat I bought years later displayed side by side that is starting to look brownish. Also an In person Johhny Bench at a denver show that has splotched everywhere. All displayed side by side
Michael, thanks for posting this. I don't mind being ignored, but when it's a legitimate question, it's good to finally get a response from someone. It sounds like you are saying that 'distilled' has something to do with toning. Is that correct?
