I used isopropyl alcohol. Since then I've read that alcohol is REALLY bad for the plex, but oddly I've never had any detrimental effects on the 12 canopy or the other three homebuilts I built.

I've had good results using charcoal lighter fluid. It doesn't say on the container what's in it, but I believe the main ingredient is naptha.
