I would think that MEK would disolve plasic. Many years ago when I had a 8 mm movie camera, I spliced films using a commercial product that was almost pure MEK. It disolved the two film surfaces so they bonded together, the same way we use plastic solvents to assemble structures. As I remember it, MEK was pretty nasty stuff for one's health and wellbeing.

Resistance is not futile--it is voltage divided by current.
Anyone use MEK (methyl ethyl ketone)? Is this better or worse than lacquer thinner? Do you use multiple consists (CMX followed by a drying centerline??) Again, thanks for your thoughts...

What cleaning solution do you all use in your CMX or other track cleaner? I read the product instructions (chemist note, etc.), but I was wondering what is most popular... Thanks in advance for any advice!
