Here is my question:





Where can I buy a nice R4 or R5 bin, vanilla color neutral XPG in the US? If I'm going to buy international I'll just get some from cutter. (please dont recommend the one at KD, I wont buy from them any longer)







Awful yellow-green tint on this nice pd31 (on the left)

The PD31 looked easy enough to open, so I gave it a try... Heated the head in the toaster oven at 200 degrees for 15 minutes. Then used an old leather belt, vice, and channel locks...

Re-assembled until I can find a nice high-bin neutral XP-G
