Speaking of grease pencil marks once again, I neglected to mention that 
you must make sure you get ALL the face/forehead grease off the shellac 
and/or lacquer if you try it for grease pencil schmutz removal. The 
mildew and mold monsters LOVE the stuff. I've even seen fingerprints 
outlined on a record in mildew after improper handling and being stored 
for a couple of weeks.
Take it off... take it all off!
