Never thought of MEK that works also. I always seem to have Acetone around the shop and it works.
I agree Styrene is pretty nasty so I’ve been staying away from it. Actually I've stayed away from all Styrene, polly, and ester based products the last few years I started to have reactions to it. I guess I played with it enough over the years that my system was getting pissed at me. I’ve been happy working with Epoxy and it does not stink! The only complaint I have about epoxy is that it takes at least overnight to cure up enough to work on it. With all the work I’m doing my neighbors do not have to put up with a styrene smell coming from my shop. I walked into a large fiberglass supply house in Ft Lauderdale a few days ago and the Styrene smell was getting me high.
