something slower evaporating would work better... xylenes or xylene, can buy at lowes / homedepot as xylol

Are you trying to do some glass repair? :confused: If so then acetone is the ticket.

I have used acetone before, but I like the slower evaporating types of dewaxing solvent. I like to have a little more time to wipe the surface clean with a second rag.

Be careful with MEK. You do not want to wipe ABS plastic with it. It melts ABS.....fast.
