VII. Solvents for clean up

If cleaning solvents are needed to remove resins and hardeners that are not cured, you should be careful in the selection since they all have hazards associated with them.  Make sure you understand the Material Safety Data Sheet and have the proper safety equipment and ventilation requirements when using these materials.
