Solvent cleaning works well, using alcohol, acetone, lacquer thinner or other solvents that evaporate completely without leaving a residue on the surface.

Allow solution to work on part until desired the color is produced. Use M24 undiluted for black coatings and fast reaction times under 30 seconds. Or, dilute with tap water to slow the reaction and make it easier to produce brown colors. Start with a 1:1 dilution and go up or down from there.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRINSE the surface with clean water. To ensure complete rinsing in recessed areas, follow up immediately with a second rinse with water containing baking soda, mixed at about ½ pound per five gallons of water.
