I was looking at the options to do paint chip repair and the Applied colors kit, which looks very nice, contains bondo spot putty. The idea is to fill before painting and I suppose the bondo shrinks less than paint so youll get a better total fill.



In the kit, they have a chemical used to remove excess bondo and paint. I assume this is just a solvent that can remove excess bondo, lacquer paint (I think these are lacquers), and is also clear coat safe.



What could we guess is this solvent? Paint thinner? Acetone? Lacquer thinner? I want to try a couple little scratches on my own before I get a big kit and Walmart sells the putty + I`ll use DR colorchip for the paint for the trials.
