## Questions & Answers

**Q: can this be used as a solvent like methylene chloride? i need it to use on garments to remove vinyl logos**
A: I am tempted to say yes, having used it last Summer to remove some dried varnish from a pair of M&S trousers. In my case, there was some loss of dye, so I guess it would depend on the type of material that you are proposing to attack. Maybe a supplier of MEK could provide advice before you spend money buying a product that you might rarely need to use?

**Q: Is this stronger then acetone for removing inks? Normal acetone for nail varnish remover failed to remove the ink I need to remove.**
A: This is above my pay grade, CS. I was told to get it by the people who supplied me with the stuff I used to repair rotten timber. It worked for me in a way that my wife's nail varnish remover wouldn't. Frankly, nothing ventured, nothing gained. Just use it sparingly to start with. And protect any surrounding surfaces!

**Q: Will it keep gloss brushes soft**
A: I'm assuming that you are not in the trade, otherwise you would not be asking the question! Firstly, MEK is not cheap. Secondly, it's a solvent and, as such, would only benefit you if you wanted to rescue a favourite brush that you had allowed to harden throughout - and even then, you'd be lucky to rescue more than the outermost 30 per cent of the bristles. Frankly, a jam jar of water and a couple of rubber bands to suspend the bristles below the surface should enable you to continue painting after 2 to 3 days.

**Q: It can be used to glue PVC or acrylic without leave marks or resíduos**
A: it can be used to glue lego together but not all plastics or flexible lego which is different composition.
Excellent for normal lego/duplo to stick some bits together into bigger blocks  for young children .
Also some plastic pipes (solvent type) but needs filler
