Default Suitable Substitute for Freon TF Solvent

Hi Folks,

Many years ago, while I was a telephone central office technician, I
used to use a lot of Freon TF solvent. I really loved using it because
it did such a great job.

Fast forward to today. I realize that this solvent has not been
available for quite some time. I would like to "pick the brains" of the
gurus in the group on what solvent is available that is almost as good
as Freon TF. I have some cleaning that needs to be done and most of the
available solvents, from some comments I have checked out, are not up to
the job.


Try naphtha. Be very careful because it is flammable
and extremely volatile. Use lots of ventilation.
