I find this very interesting. I'm glad to see such new type of discussion presented on the list. I was wondering, how does acetone and lacquer thinner fit into this? Are these in the same family as well? Acetone is particularly volatile, but is one of my favorite solvents. Also- In your second post you briefly mentioned Protek as your favorite "snake oil". Seriously, to what were you refering? I was always under the impression that Protek was made from "synthetic polymers", whatever that means. (Another one of those terms for which no-one seems to have a solid definition for). If not, is the formula used in Proteck something that one could brew from available over-the-counter ingredients?
