Hi Don,
As Stefan pointed out, isopropyl alcohol can be used for cleaning,
but it won't remove significant amounts of toner. When using
isopropyl alcohol, use the anhydrous variety (99% pure or better).
Rubbing alcohol from drug stores is 30% water and will leave residue.
Home improvement stores should carry acetone in quart to gallon
containers. In a pinch, you can use nail polish remover.
Regards,
Dennis
