Real MEK or the (worthless) substitute?
I haven't seen Real MEK in the Bay Area for a while.

You can still get real MEK at TAP Plastics, but it's $40/gal.

I just used tank seal on the aft end of my rudder assembly. There is no paint on the surface yet. Just some sealant on the rudder skin, clecos and tools. I was going to use MEK to clean those surfaces.
