Re: Best way to prep new parts for paint?

New parts are clean, you just need to prep to eliminate residues. Anything that leaves virtually no oil residue. I use Brakeleen to spray, mineral spirits (have a pump sprayer) spray or wipe, or lacquer thinner. I guess any paint thinner would work. All these things dehydrate and lave the surface from oily residue
