White spirit wipe over brushable seam sealer

Post by HansT »

Does a white spirit 'wipe' used to smooth brushable seam sealant need to be cleaned off, before spaying with rattle can cellulose?
The seam sealer (tetro syl ) is supposed to cure in two hours at 20c - it has been a wee bit warmer than that, of late, but will leave for a day before spraying.

Yes.
Clean it off.

But rattle cans are normally acrylic paint.

Thanks, Titus, will do.

As overspray from rattle cans cleans off so well with cellulose thinners, I assumed they are cellulose based.
