I am currently making sea kayaks in Africa - Tanzania - for taking clients on tours. Acetone is very expensive so I use good old fashioned soap for cleaning up. A long bar of laundry soap rubbed into everything as if you were using a pumice stone. Then washed off normally works well even on brushes etc. Normal soap works just as well but you tend to get through it too quickly. Steve
