Default RE: Balsarite thinner

I recently had the same issue, so I decided to use what was in my shop and see which worked best. I tried MEK, acetone, laquer thinner, mineral spirits and xylene. The MEK worked best, but I had to let it sit in a sealed glass jar for a few hours. I had no luck with the other solvents. I've read that nitrate dope thinner is the same as Ironex, but I've never tried it. Use face and lung protection. Nasty stuff!!
