Epoxy: Epoxy Cleanup Made a Little Easier

Hi,
I learned here that common vinegar is good for cleaning up epoxy before it cures. And of course everyone wears gloves every time they mess with epoxy- even those little quick jobs.
RIGHT!!!
Sometimes I forget and end up with some sticky stuff on my hands or clothes.
So what I discovered is that by keeping a used and cleaned out disposable liquid soap pump container filled with vinegar and a roll of paper towels in an easy to reach place in my messy shop, makes for quick and easy cleanups.

I hope this is useful,

John VB
