i used that on my valve covers, intake, and multiple blocks, just stay away from anything you like cuz it is very unforgiving once its on its on

Same time, same stuff, just different maker.

same maker same stuff just different can lol

I assume this product will work on steel as well?

 

[1969moparDART]

it will work on everything but plastic and rubber, so if you are doing valve covers remove your grommets

The stuff in the aerosol can is not near the aggressiveness of the non aerosol version of aircraft stripper.

After you apply the paint stripper cover the piece your working on with plastic wrap (Saran Wrap). It slows the evaporation process and allows the stripper to do it's job and cuts down on the number of applications of stripper needed to completely strip the piece you are working on.

Wear a charcoal mask and work in a well ventilated area. Your lungs will thank you for it.

and a side note, it burns like a mother if it gets on any soft skin lol

Aree with above, Saran wrap or stick it in a trash bag. Saves stripper and eliminates removing the crust it sometimes forms.
