Interlux 5608447 Fiberglass Solvent Wash - Marine Surface Prep Cleaner Before Coating

Interlux Fiberglass Solvent Wash is a surface preparation cleaner used to remove surface contamination and sanding residue before you apply coatings. Because sanding alone will not remove surface contamination, wiping the surface with this solvent wash is a key prep step for a clean, sound finish. For best results, wipe only small areas at a time and change rags frequently so contamination is lifted away rather than spread across the surface.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Interlux Fiberglass Solvent Wash used for? It is a surface preparation cleaner used to remove surface contamination and sanding residue before applying coatings.

Why do I need a solvent wash if I already sanded? Sanding will not remove surface contamination. A solvent wash wipe removes contaminants that sanding leaves behind, giving coatings a clean surface to bond to.

How do I apply the solvent wash? Dampen a clean rag with the solvent wash and wipe the surface. Wipe only small areas at a time and change rags frequently.

Why should I change rags frequently? Changing rags frequently prevents contamination from being spread back across the surface, so each wipe lifts contamination away instead of redepositing it.

When should I use the solvent wash during prep? Use it after sanding and before applying your coating, to remove sanding residue and surface contamination from the area being coated.

Can I wipe the whole surface at once? No. Wipe only small areas at a time so the solvent lifts and removes contamination before it can dry back onto the surface.
