Routine rod cleaning will minimize streaking and other defects while maximizing coating uniformity and rod life. If using water-soluble coatings, immediately immerse the rods after use in warm water mixed with detergent (Liquid Dish Soap). If using caustic solvents in your coating, such as MEK (methyl ethyl ketone), Toluene, alcohol, turpentine, acetone and lacquer thinner, immerse the rods immediately after use in a container of the same solvent used in the coating.
