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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Interlux\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer Part Number: 5608447\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct Type: Solvent Wash\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCategory: Thinners and Solvents\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse: Surface cleaning and prep prior to coating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNet Weight: 2.1 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUPC: 081948402026\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow To Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDampen a clean rag with the solvent wash and wipe the surface to remove sanding residue and contamination.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWipe only small areas at a time and change rags frequently.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemember that sanding will not remove surface contamination, so a solvent wash step is important before coating.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is Interlux Fiberglass Solvent Wash used for?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is a surface preparation cleaner used to remove surface contamination and sanding residue before applying coatings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy do I need a solvent wash if I already sanded?\u003c\/strong\u003e Sanding will not remove surface contamination.
