    Hello , One thing I've not seen mentioned in this ultrasonic
    discussion , is the power of an ultrasonic to force rouge , in
    particular red rouge , into epoxy glues , staining them red . One
    shop "foreman" I worked with insisted on use of red rouge as the
    primary final finish compound [ it certainly works well ] the
    Ultrasonic solution would quickly become red from the rouge and once
    red , Any glue would become stained red after exposure to the
    ultrasonic solution . This would not be a problem if you can control
    completly what is going into the solution , but that shop had a large
    repair/trade work component and there were many surprises . The "red
    " was not just on the surface but was actually into the glue itself
    and was not at all easy to "clean"
