In order to break the cycle of failed attempts I would suggest that you abandon the IPA and follow the instructions to use acetone or cellulose thinners.

Isopropyl alcohol is, in itself, a good solvent, but it is hygroscopic and dilutes itself so that its ability to dissolve non-polar (lipid) molecules becomes limited. It can be dessicated by adding salt, causing the water to become "salted out," but this is far more trouble than picking up a small can of acetone at the local building supply or hardware store and using that.
