Hi All. I have my second guitar finish sanded and need to wipe it down before applying the finish. Naptha is illegal to sell in California. Can someone let me Know what a good alterative is? I will be pore filling with Zinser sealcoat and applying TRU OIL. Any feedback would be great. Thanks. Jon

Don't wipe it down with any chemicals! Solvents will turn into an indelible stain and can make a mess of the sound board and or the bindings or any of the light color woods. Just use a tack rag and you'll be just fine.

Wow Ken. Thanks for the info. A tack rag it is.
