On to my questions...I am getting ready to apply the clearcoat. As I have handled the parts with bare hands, I need to make sure there is no oil contamination between coats. I surely can't use laquer thinner as anything like that as it will "eat" the paint. How about rubbing alcohol? It will de-grease and dries quickly. Put it on wet and clean it off with clean rag before it dries? Thanks

The only way to remove is to use a quick caustic wash or wipe. | | | | | Joined: Jul 2006 Posts: 232 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Jul 2006 Posts: 232 | Get into the habit of wearing rubber gloves. As soon as I start a final prep for paint I put them on, change as needed untill part is completed. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2005 Posts: 364 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jan 2005 Posts: 364 | Originally posted by Wada:
