Further up this thread there was a comment about Brake Cleaner. It can be very dangerous to use for Tig because of the argon. One local welder managed to make himself very ill, told me he felt like he was swallowing marbles.

Current thinking on here is that brake cleaner is now ok to use. I would guess most of it certainly is, but not so sure about the no name stuff you buy from Ebay in unmarked plastic 5 ltr containers? Personally I would never use any sort of brake cleaner (impossible to be sure if its ok or not), given how cheap and easily available acetone is.
