Lightbulb paint thinner + decal adhesive = frustration!!!

Okay, There i am happily applying CF to my Enzo. Great!!! Progress... o is it!?? As i was putting decal adhesive on the back of the seats using a q-tip, i started to notice the CF was getting white-ish. As time went on, white spots started to appear, kind of like when you spill bleach on dark clothes. Then the air turned blue.... the explitifs started to fly. I just realized that the q-tips that i was using, were used with paint thinner in a previous project. Anyway, i managed to take the CF off, cut some new decals and re-apply. Lesson: make sure to keep all liquids seperate form each other as well as tools. Remember which tool you used with what liquid. Or even better, after using the tool - q-tip, kleenex - discard it. Hope this is informative.
