I am a restorer of fine objects and antique ceramics. I use Conservation grade epoxies . For clean up I have found nothing better than this product. And it cleans out the airbrush very well.

On exterior, it worked well but is slower to lift than Acetone. Environmentally safer. No face mask, no special clothing, just gloves. Use a plastic scraper to lift off crud, then wipe clean with Mineral Spirits.

This is a great product to use to remove excess contact cement from laminate placement on counter tops, or any project where contact cement is used. It does have an odor that lingers, but is much more pleasant than acetone, and you don't have to worry about the health effects that acetone has on your customer, or yourself. I wouldn't go as far to say it out performs acetone, but it sure does the job as well as acetone. Would especially recommend this product to any professional. Am ordering two more half gallons of this product today.

Used it to remove boat lettering adhesive. Spray on BioSolv. Wait 5-10 min, while keeping surface wet. Scrape off with plastic putty knife.

This works great as a replacement for Acetone or Alcohol when working with Epoxy. It doesn't evaporate as quickly, so you can use less and the rag stays wet longer. It does not leave a residue. It has a "fruity" smell, very unlike Acetone or Alcohol. Although not suggested, I have not noticed any health effects or irritation due to vapors in a confined space. I found this good for cleaning up if you get wet epoxy on your skin without burning or skin irritation. aka: Ethyl Hydroxy Propionate ( a proprietary Ethyl Lactate Blend ) 100% Biodegradable -- non-toxic: No adverse effects known or suspected
