Default Resucitating Silver loaded paint.

For the first time in 8 years or so I have use for a dab of conductive
paint.
About 8 years ago I asked a chemist mate if he recognised the smell of
the solvent in this phial of paint , I think he said something acetate
- ethyl acetate ?. He said he'd dig out a tiny quantity but both he
and I forgot. Anyway the paint although kept in a fridge is on the
solid side of paste and not paint.
Any ideas where I would find Ethyl Acetate in an ordinary product like
nail varnish remover, epoxy thinner or whatever?
Or any other ideas, as its like Coleman's mustard - made his fortune
from what was left on the side of the plate.



try using a small amount of acetone.
