RE: IML: What to use for cleaning

["Robin Giesbrecht" <robings@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I scrape as much of it off as I can with scrapers, screwdrivers and whatever 
else works. Then wash it with paint thinner or varsol. Use a 
brush(toothbrush works well for smaller places) to scrub it, let it soak and 
it will come clean.
