I contacted bluewater in 1993, and I got a material sheet.

Basically, of the common chemicals they tested with, anything other than clorox (which I presume means bleach in general) is ignored by spectra.
They did a 6 month immersion test, which is more than you should ever experience...
I presume that the test results should still be valid, as spectra is still pretty much the same.

It totally depends on what I spilled on my gear. Deet will disolve nylon. Aquamira part b is phosphoric acid. Those can both be damaging to nylon. Petro-chemicals are not as damaging as those two items would be to nylon.
