I had to remove some sealant from a sink because the seal broke. I cleaned it up using mineral spirits... is there a way to cleanup the mineral sprits on the sink or will it just dissolve away?

My advise would be to leave it for about 3 months. It should start to glow patina by then.

Get a chisel and knock it off that way.

Snoozer, the MSDS says "Allow residues to evaporate or soak up with an appropriate absorbent material and dispose of safely."

Hope this helps. JP
