Acetone is also extremely useful because it is mixable with all common solvents and water plus most common paints, finishes and colouring products. Acetone is also the fastest evaporating and one of the strongest of all the commonly available solvents. This makes it an excellent cleaner and degreaser in various industries. The strength of Acetone wipes can remove most paints and finishes so make sure you use them as a cleaner on all but the most solvent-resistant finishes. These would include conversion varnish, two-part polyurethane, UV-cured finish and epoxy resin. Acetone wipes are commonly used in labs and in industrial settings as the solvent removes epoxy and cyanoacrylate adhesives from hands or other surfaces before the adhesive hardens. Specifically, regarding finishing, Acetone is the best cleaner for removing the resinous oils in oily woods such as teak and rosewood.
