: Have any of you who have used the stuff looked over the MSDS for this stuff.
: It will tell you what chemicals are used in the mixture!

The solvents listed on the MSDS are:

Aromatic hydrocarbon (unidentified) CAS# 64742-95-6
Xylene
Toluene
Isopropyl alcohol
2-Butanone
4-Methyl 2-pentanone
2-Heptanone
4-Methyl 2-hexanone
2-Pentanone
Dipropylene Glycol Monomethylether
Diisobutyl Acetate
Isobutyl Acetate
Ethyl 3-Ethoxy Propionate
Propylene Glycol Monomethylether Acetate
Hexyl Acetate
Isobutyl Isobutyrate
Diacetone Alcohol
Cyclohexane

None of these solvents explains a greasy film. Contaminants would explain a greasy film. Largely it doesn't matter, though. The film needs to go before you glass, and it's easy to rinse off. Just treat it like blush and everything comes out OK.
