Does anyone know of a cleaner or solvent that is readily available that will cut Pro Seal?

I had very good results with xylol.  You should be able to find it in most hardware stores.

     A lot of people (including me) use MEK, but IIRC, Flamemaster     recommends Toluene (Methyl Benzene).

     That's the solvent in the sealant.

Ding, ding. We have a winner!

If you are just cleaning up, MEK is okay with all the precautions about 

skin protection, not inhaling it, etc.

If you want to thin the sealant, toluene is correct.

If you just want a brushable consistency, get the A compound instead of 

the B compound..it already has the correct amount of toluene in it.

A compound is better for covering rivet heads and as a topcoat over B 

compound than using thinned B compound. Less likely to get air bubbles 

and pin holes.

I've heard good things about Polygone.  Apparently it's made for this 

purpose.

Polygone is for removing cured pro-seal, available in gel and liquid 

formulations. It breaks down the chemistry of the pro-seal and is used 

to clean out a tank before resealing.  It is NOT a thinner, and should 

only be used where you want to remove cured sealant, not just a cleanup.
