Denatured Alcohol (1 quart) |
|||
Denatured alcohol solvent, pure 100% denatured ethyl alcohol. We use this to clean surfaces prior to applying epoxy, paint, or varnish, and as a wipe-down between coats of epoxy, paint, or varnish. Also good for cleaning up tools and epoxy spills. Denatured is relatively gentle as a solvent compared to lacquer thinner or acetone, though of course use common sense in providing good ventilation whenever you use it. Bonus tip: Want perfect epoxy fillets? Allow your structural epoxy fillets to gel, usually 90-120 minutes. Dip a gloved finger in a cup of denatured alcohol, and smooth the surface of the fillets, keeping the epoxy surface wet with denatured alcohol. You can eliminate lumps or ugly spots in minutes. |
