Rockler's accelerator, at least, is not acetone. I checked on that a year or
two back. All I can remember any more is that it's a fluorinated hydrocarbon
of some sort, and that I found out what it is by Googling for the MSDS.

I seriously doubt that acetone is an accelerator, I use acetone to remove
Super Glue before it cures and after.

I think the accelerator is trichloreythelene.
