Given its potency, I'm surprised that it hasn't been 'stamped on' by our standards/safety people as they have on UK products? In many of the write ups I've read in the past it is one of the only substances that will remove the thick, hard lacquer from cheap, Chinese and Korean made electric guitars and even two part epoxies. Even old style Nitromors won't touch that stuff. Maybe the importer is winging it?
