Note: Never pour or spray cleaning solvent on aircraft structure because it will run
back between structural layers, then run back out again after the cleaning
operations are completed, bringing contamination to surfaces previously
cleaned.
(e) Thoroughly clean small areas at a time and immediately wipe area dry with a clean, dry,
lint-free cloth.
Note: If adhesive, resin, or sealant is to be applied, always clean an area wider
than the width of final product being applied.
(f) Continue cleaning process until no discoloration is noted on the drying cloth.
C. Cleaning Acrylic Surfaces
(1) Acquire necessary tools and equipment.
CAUTION: Do not use any solvent other than aliphatic naphtha or Isoproply alcohol to clean
acrylic parts, as crazing may occur. Isoproply alcohol can also craze acrylic if
instructions are not carefully followed.
If sealant is to be applied, use cleaning solvent only on portions of acrylic parts
necessary to facilitate a proper sealing procedure.
