MEK is not as bad as MEKP. MEKP is used in epoxies, MEK is used as the flow on
glue. MEK is what Lego uses (or were using) for models that are cemented
together, and can be bought at a hardware store.
(and, whist MEK is not as bad as MEKP, neither one comes highly recommended on
the low toxicity scale of things...MEKP is liable to eat your eyes if you get
ANY in, and MEK is a known and potent brain destroyer and cancer causing
agent...use at own risk!)
