[QUOTE="Canadian Bushman, post: 1134311, member: 41122"] Im not certain but i think its a guideline in order to avoid contamination of the coating. If you were to use a petroleum based cleaner or something that does not leave the metal before the paint is applied it could contaminate the paint or affect its adhesion. Cerakote also recommends the very same thing, except they advise to blow all parts off with air. On occasion ive used acetone to clean a surface before cerakoting and had no problems, but i still blow it off to remove any lint or small particles that may of been left by the cloth. If you dont have an air dryer or water seperator you can have issues as well. Even changing your sand frequently is advised as not to allow grease or oil to build up in the reserves, this has caused problems for me as well. [/QUOTE]
