Just finishing up my first epoxy river table. Not sure if I ever want to do another one! My question is how to final clean the top to prepare for the final finish of Rubio Monocoat. Obviously the "river" is down the center with walnut on the sides. I don't want to risk just wiping with water to avoid raising the grain of the adjacent wood. What should I use?
Thanks!
Paul

Look at RM's prep instructions.  I think they recommend you wipe it down with their cleaner.  Others say mineral spirits work just as well, which is what I used and had no problems.
