Shit, that's awesome. We only sold it in cans that you had to apply with a brush. I wonder if one of them works better than the other.

the spray can lets you apply it a little more evenly than with a brush.

definately agree with that. used it to remove the paint on my valve cover today and worked wonders in half an hour. sprayed it off with a hose. no scraping.

Did an entire set of ls mesh rims with one bottle of it from pepboys, but like dude said earlier, don't leave it on too long or it will take the previous color off as well. Found that out the wrong way.

Yeah I left it on too long. I learned the hard way. My wheels look ugly now. I left the aircraft paint remover for about 10-15 minutes and then it took off my original wheel color. My wheels were kinda white and greenish. So I painted them over again. Later on I am just going to get the powder coated proffesionally.
