[QUOTE="ntsqd, post: 3031518, member: 93138"] That is the stuff that I've knocked loose. It IS good stuff, it's just not like if the parts were actually welded together and in a simple lap joint it can be separated. Wouldn't want it in threads either, that would be really bad. Some degreasers are better than others at not leaving a film behind. In my days working in ultra high vacuum acetone wasn't good enough. Use it on a smooth enough surface and you can see the film it leaves behind. We used it, and then wiped again with Isopropyl Alcohol because the acetone film will be picked up by the IPA. Similarly I've found that the aerosol brake cleaners leave less film than the aerosol carburetor cleaners do. And GunScrubber is even better at not leaving a film. True commercial grade 1,1,1 was the best, but that is no more. [/QUOTE]
