    Default Another question.....UV Glue.....how to clean it out of a vest

    Hello all you good people.

    uh....my Loon UV glue cap came off my tube in my vest pocket and wet it so bad....entire tube now empty.

    How can I clean this out? It is messy and gooey. Don't want uv light to hit it....

    Heck E Dern......to put it in a washing machine I have to take ALL the tones of gadgets off the vest....

    I don't know what solvent or whatever cuts uv glue

    Anyone know?

    If it is petroleum based a solvent may be required, but first I would try Dawn dishwashing soap. The rescue folks used that to clean up animals after the Valdez oil spill, that is my best SWAG. I have found using a electric toothbrush can be very effective for a gentle scrubbing action.

    Try a little bit of acetone on a test spot.
