Floor mastic. Aggressive. Malodorous. Different brands have VASTLY different set rates. I still have tools 10 years later that have mastic stuck to them. You can't wipe it, you can't peel it, and it is there until you die or throw the object contaminated with it away. I remember pulling out quarter sized patches of arm hair because a little swatch of mastic got on it. Yeah I suppose you could clean it off with MEK or something, but I think that's worse than the mastic. Toxicity wise. Bikini waxed hair grows back. MEK grows tumors.

(Gaug) ~ I didn't do it personally, but imagine you come back from lunch and the quart of contact cement you left covered on the sink counter has disappeared. And you find it, with the loose-tapped lid off, in the cast iron sink; and the contents drained through the basket strainer into the owner's garbage disposal.

This post is actually of good enough quality that it should be published. At least give it a try.
