Acetone is a great cleaner, but also use good ventilation. This may be what was in the old type "Airplane glue" everyone sniffed in the old days. I built a lot of model cars back in the day and the first time I used acetone I recalled about 70 car kits from the smell. Good flashbacks though! I remember this AMT '32 Vicky, but I digress. Talk about a memory stimulant. But it left my grips absolutely clean and free from any contaminants under the new finish.
