Attack Epoxy Solvent
Like... with bottled water... one is relying on the company/manufacturer's claim the product is "safe" and "effective."
I note that according to public information the product mentioned allegedly has dichloromethane... and also ... another chemical component.
The effects of dichlormethane (a.k.a. DCM) on cured epoxy compounds have been discussed in the current thread.
The other component... which is added... and which I suggest, is added to allow the DCM to remain in solution longer (as DCM evaporates readily)... and also to allow washing with water.
If you have experience with a commercial/industrial product, or the product's manufacturer, and have received training, or "adequate" instructions in how to "safely" use the product... and are willing to spend more money (sometimes a lot more)... then sometimes these industrial/commercial products can be a better fit.
If you go with a commercial/industrial product... then IMO, good luck in recovering your losses, should their be any.
If you just want to go with "generic" strait DCM... then perhaps the onus is on the user, as to whether they understand what DCM is, and known to do, and could do.
