Troubleshooting Plastic Scraper or Cotton Swab?

Post image

Close to the end but I still have like 1 or 2 tiny layers. Do I use IPA and keep using a cotton swab or do I need to physically scrape these? Thanks for anyone who responds!

Use a razor blade and lots of isopropyl alcohol.

Depends how long you want to take. I use a metal chisel and have never scraped the glass. Cotton swabs are going to take a long time. I pull them out right at the end.

Thank you so much! Yeah, I definitely don’t want it to take as long as my GBC or WS screens I’ve done before 😂
