    Does denatured alcohol accomplish the same thing as acetone?

    And, what happens with acetone and purpleheart?

    I don't know I have done a few in purpleheart and had no problems, I have some from 2 different suppliers at home so I am going to try two test patches and see if maybe I missed a reaction somewhere along the line... I am curious now but that is what SRP is really all about we find out a ton of info here...

    I have always learned and then later been told that MEK is the best solvent for wood finishing. It initiates cross linking of unsaturated polyester resins according to wikipedia. YMMV
