In replacing the helm windshield the tips and tricks process calls for good old 111 trichloroethane (methyl chloroform) when cleaning the frame of any residual butyl tape. This particular solvent has been banned since the late 90's as an ozone hazard but was a very effective organic solvent for cleaning metals. Any recommendations for a substitute?
