    No, it's a solvent that was used in the printing industry (and others), from what I understand. n-Heptane...

    Ok rubber cement thinner.

    Knowing what I do about printing and the dials I have worked on, I do not think I would want than anywhere near a dial or anything with latex based inks.

    The second photo is so blurry it’s hard to see a difference between the two.
    In any event I wouldn’t have a problem with the dial; the case is the problem.
