He may also have mentioned that you could dip the
tube in a bucket of prop wash.?? They will give it to you
for free at the airport, because otherwise they have to pay
to have it disposed of.

(... and if that doesn't work, try putting the
tube in the freezer and see if the condensation renders the
text readable when you take it out.?? This, I've done
myself.)

An old-timer
once told me to take such a tube that was hard to read
its' identification, ...to take the tube and rub it up
and down on the back of the nape of your neck.?? The
resulting static electricity would help bring out the
long-gone lettering, ....??where it once was.
Seems I have
tried it over the years, and it does work.
Anyone else
ever heard of this trick?, ...or is it just more urban
legend?
