Good thoughts there Joe, safety is paramount when working with chemicals and especially with electricity (at 4 amps)....
A product I use after cleaning, sanding and general surface preparation prior to painting is a product called "Prepsol", but can be bought as a generic name of "Wax and Grease Remover", from any automotive paint supplier.
It removes all traces of the grease from your fingerprints prior to the first coat, so don't handle the item with your bare hands after cleaning with this product.

It works a treat!!
