Three steel coupons were used for each cleaner tested, for a total of nine coupons. Initial weights of coupons were taken. The varnish was heated to 350 F on a hot plate. Each coupon was placed on the hot plate for a total of 30 seconds. The varnish was then applied to the heated coupons with a metal scraper in order to achieve a thin layer of varnish on the bottom third of the coupons. Once the varnish had solidified, dirty weights of each coupon were taken. Coupons were then subjected to 15 minutes of unheated immersion with a stir bar set at 100 rpm. The chosen solvents tested were A. Xylene 98.5% (for comparison), B. SC Actisolv Safety Solvent 100%, C. Dimethyl Glutarate 98%. Coupons were removed and left to air dry. Clean weights were then taken.
