Acetone
Used extensively within the GRP industry. Acetone is a powerful solvent used as the standard for cleaning and degreasing. It will dissolve and remove uncured epoxy, polyester, and vinyl ester resin from tools, brushes, and surfaces—and will effectively remove grease and wax for surface preparation prior to bonding or repair. Also popular as a high strength nail varnish remover, Acetone is the standard of the industry for cleaning tools and brushes while working in polyester, vinyl ester, and epoxy resins. It is also the recommended solvent for removing greases and waxes from surfaces which are to be bonded, repaired or primed.
