Default Denatured Alcohol
I read where it's recommended to use Denatured Alcohol for wiping down plastic parts and bumpers covers prior to paint. It suppose to evaporate rather than soak into the plastic. Is this appropriate and could it be used on the rest of the body?

Default Wipe down
Go to the auto parts store and get some prep sol. Good for plastic or steel prep.
