Scalecoat uses Xylene -- I think that's what smells. I don't think there's any
of that in brake fluid either. Remember hydraulic fluid is created from viscous
fluids -- alcohols are anything but viscous.

I can think of a test -- does brake fluid catch fire easily? Because alcohols
and xylene sure will!




Hello-
To my nose, Scalecoat paint remover has always smelled similar to SAE 3 brake fluid, leading me to believe that the active components, whatever they are, are closely related.

I've had great success removing all kinds of paint jobs with Scalecoat's paint and decal remover. And it seems very friendly to all kinds of plastics.

      I agree completely. And you can use it over and over, even as it gets discolored from previous use, though it does slow down some.
