publication. He has been pursuing his own less than professional
agenda for a very long time on others behalf."

PAINT STRIPPING

Methylene chloride is the active ingredient in many formulations of paint removers including industrial paint and commercial furniture strippers, home paint removers, and products used for aircraft maintenance. The chemical has a unique ability to penetrate, blister, and lift a wide variety of paint coatings. Formulations of the chemical are used extensively in both flow-over and immersion (dip) tanks in furniture refinishing operations. For the maintenance of military and commercialaircraft, a methylene chloride-based product is often required to inspect the surface for damage. hsia.org
