Brain Killers!
Cleaning greasy/dirty deposits are the universal job of old car owners yet we tend to blow off concerns of some of the most dangerous products, popular to the process. If it isn't highly flammable, it's collectively toxic. Lately, I've been using iso-alcohol. It's not for heavy duty cleaning. With effective pre cleaning, alcohol can be great for the final pass, while not melting nitrile gloves, or removing many finishes. These are not mindless processes. Like most things in the real world, we need to know the chemical nature of the solvent and the substrate. We need to be smart, or pay the price. Another point is that the cheap alcohol is half water. Worse yet alcohol sucks water out of the air, so don't lose the lid. 91% iso is the right stuff. Good luck: Fred A
