Default Plexiglass protective paper

Do not use denatured alcohal to soak off paper from Plexiglas. I've had it
craze very badly from exposure to alchol. I had a Plexiglass cylinder that
some one filled with ethonal, and in a short time it fractured all over

and
fell apart.



Rubbing alcohol is methanol. Big difference from ethanol. That said,
I
have no idea if methanol will harm plexi.

Also "denatured" alcohol at the local hardware store can be denatured
with just about anything of which the BATF approves - like acetone,
toluene, and other solvents. Makes for some costly surprises if you
don't test first..........
