LBlack14 Rickochet I've never tried water. It might work cleaning off excess epoxy but I don't think it would work too well cleaning out a dirty hosel particularly with a new head. I don't use it for that either.
Fish I still use a tiny bit of my brampton's grip solution, works great and easy with a spray bottle.
ode For excess epoxy I use mineral spirits. Isopropyl alcohol for after shaft prep and inside hosel. After my first bottle of acetone I never used it again. Sh1t is nasty!
