toured
the
Custom
Desk
facility
in
Eagan,
MN
on
May
10,
2006.
The
facility
manufactures
office
furniture­
private
and
executive.
The
rags
are
used
towels
from
hotels
that
Custom
Desk
cuts
into
pieces.
Rags
are
used
for
staining
the
furniture
and
when
used
are
sent
to
a
laundry
for
cleaning.
The
rags
are
not
used
to
apply
solvent
to
the
furniture.

Custom
Desk
uses
a
solvent
based
blend
to
clean
its
spray
guns
in
a
fully
contained
spray
gun
cleaning
machine.
All
solvents
except
for
the
gun
cleaning
operations
were
eliminated
approximately
five
years
ago.
Occasionally
a
limited
amount
of
solvent
is
used
to
reduce
the
viscosity
of
the
lacquer
topcoat
when
high
humidity
in
low
dew
point
conditions
occurs.
