What "stuff" do you use for cleaning up washes?

Post by Hokum »

By "Stuff" there are a wide scope of products you can use to clean up enamel washes but what gives the best results?

There is Turpentine, Turpentine substitute, White spirit, "clean Spirit" (whatever that is).

I was watching this video and I wanted to know what gives the best results Mig mentions all three!

Odorless spirit works great for oil washes like Lee said. I use AK washes and a bottle of the "AK solvent" was $15.00 for a few ounces of the stuff. The hardware store sells it for a few bucks for a half gallon!!!
