In Response To: Removing uncured fiberglass (Ed Gandorf)

If you can't get it all off using alchohol, use acetone -- and your paint scraper. Been there, done that, (first in cleaning straight resin off panels -- for the story behind that, look back through the bulletin board messages, and then again when I had a malfunctioning pump that created a bad mix ratio.) acetone worked great. I'd advise getting it back to bare wood -- at least to the point where you don't have any sticky stuff residue left.
