Roger,
By "quicker", do you mean flash off, as in FIRE???! DO NOT USE a hairdryer
for this! Acetone is highly flammable and any sparks or high heat will set
it off! Acetone will flash off with just normal air circulation, in less
than 1/2 hour. However, the lacquer/key top/whatever will retain it for
longer and will stay somewhat soft, for up to 24 hours +.
Be cautious with this stuff. Please. BTW, it doesn't do your lungs much good
either, so outside with ya'.
