Three coatings from precision cleaning projects were applied to surfaces and then cleaned using immersion and manual cleaning.

Methyl 408 and Ethyl 408 absorbed into the guerilla epoxy and clear lacquer, and affected the gravimetric results even though, visually, they both removed most of the soils. The red lacquer did not absorb the chemicals, so a gravimetric reading was possible. Both chemicals are decent at precision cleaning.

Cleaning Category Precision Cleaning    
Soil type Adhesive Resin  
Specific soil Guerilla Epoxy Clear Lacquer Red Lacquer
Methyl 408 Mostly Effective Mostly Effective 92.92%
Ethyl 408 Mostly Effective Mostly Effective 74.29%

The Methyl 408 is the better of the two cleaners on these soil types.
