Terry, After scraping, you have options: 1.. Dip a scotchbrite red pad in alcohol or Dyna After Wash, scrub the surface, wipe off while wet with paper towels. 2. Spray the After Wash on the surface, let stand for 5 minutes, scrub with scotchbrite, wipe with paper towel. 3. Spray with Afterwash, scrub with stiff nylon bristle brush, wipe with paper towels. Denatured alcohol is both toxic and flammable, After Wash is non flammable and super low toxicity. It is also advisable to wipe down the surface with AW or alcohol after steps 1, 2 or 3. Wait overnight before sanding. REMEMBER, FOLKS: Never leave a half stripped lid overnight! The stripped side can absorb moisture, causing the lid to curl and/or crack. It doesn't matter what kind of stripper you use. Arthur Grudko StarHawk Labs
