Thank you, GordMay, for sharing the link!

Interestingly, I couldn't find the information on the Awlwood site. Unfortunately, it doesn't specify the chemistry of the brush cleaner, which I hoped would shed some light on potential substitutes. I ended up buying a quart and using it successfully, but I still have doubts about cost-effectiveness. I'm wondering if there's a cheaper alternative. It seems that using disposable brushes for smaller projects and reserving a high-quality brush for the final coat on larger projects could be a more economical approach than purchasing the cleaner.

Are there any other substances like acetone, alcohol, or xylene that can substitute for T0200?

Any real-life experiences from the field would be greatly appreciated!

Here's a video showcasing the application of 8 coats of Awlwood Clear using disposable rollers followed by brush tipping. Currently, it's in the curing stage, awaiting completion of other projects before the final 9th coat with a high-quality brush. Any remaining imperfections will be buffed out once Awlwood has fully cured.

PPG has a line of 2-part paints/primers.
They have a cleaner "Amercoat 12", seems main ingredients are Acetone and Toluene.
