M9 vertical rangefinder adjustment

I've purchased a tool to line up my images vertically. I've read somewhere that I should use a little acetate to melt the glue keeping the assembly stable. Do I just dip the tool in acetate then hope it comes off the tool in the right place?? Also, should I be trying to apply glue following adjustment? Perhaps melting the glue isn't necessary?

It is a paint that locks the adjustment.

A Q-tip would work better but be careful not to dribble the acetone around. A small drop is all that's necessary.

Care to tell me where did you purchase the tool from?

I got mine from someone in China - Ebay? I forget.

 

What I do recall is chickening out! Adjusting the angle of my glasses was easier - am pulling focus just fine.

 

G'luck - or try DAG repair. He does a great job, also quick and reasonable
