I have no "hard" evidence related to the use of Acetone vs MC except what I have read on this list and an experiment I set up in my shop. There is not any grease used on the Lancair molds and shouldn't be any grease on the parts that come from the factory mostly ready for bonding. I can only state that I did try cleaning up "grease" off of glass with acetone and it smeared it around. MC took it right off. But like others have pointed out, there should not not be any grease on the parts so Acetone probably will work for prepping an area for bonding, along with sanding. As Curtis said "The most important thing is not which cleaner you use, but the process that you use to create the bond." Well said.
