Hi Keith
I have used the Tack cloths in the past and Queried the supplier on this, he
was a technique demonstrator / instructor for one of the large suppliers so
knows his products, he said to just use the tack rag then do a prepaint wipe
with a product that lifts silicones etc, there was a thread a while back on
pre paint cleaners / solvents and what's available where.
