Epoxy and polyurethane paint removers
[edit]I am surprised that not enough information on epoxy and polyurethane paint removers is given. I request concerned experts to add that because these days more and more paint are coming with epoxy and polyurethane base. Thanks. Pathare Prabhu (talk) 03:29, 15 June 2011 (UTC)

Woops, time to go get me some, EU regulations.. "Shall not be placed on the market for supply to the general public or to professionals after 6 December 2011;"
"DECISION No 455/2009/EC OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL
of 6 May 2009
amending Council Directive 76/769/EEC as regards restrictions on the marketing and use of
dichloromethane"
something to add later..
"Consumers and professionals will have to count on much longer stripping times,
and because the alternative chemicals are more expensive, it will involve additional
costs of some 125 to 325 Million Euro per annum in the EU. However, almost all
markets at stake are within the EU. Regulation at EU level will have little influence
on competition." Methylene chloride: Advantages and Drawbacks of Possible
Market Restrictions in the EU Final report

References
[edit]I noticed a number of references using the url to a Google Book link. I though editors might be interested in a tool which takes a link as input and creates a (usually) properly formatted ref.
Wikipedia citation tool for Google Books
I used it to improve two such references.
It really helps creates a much cleaner list of references. I hope you will try it. S Philbrick(Talk) 22:43, 11 February 2016 (UTC)
Petroleum hydroxide merge
[edit]I have no idea what it is other than the obvious purpose of paint stripping. I merged the article as a section. Graywalls (talk) 16:16, 3 March 2019 (UTC)
petroleum hydroxide talk page migrated
[edit]So is Petroleum hydroxide highly toxic? Or just Agent Orange? The first paragraph is confusing.

Or better yet, can we get some source outside of graffiti culture to confirm this?--Knulclunk 16:06, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
Removal of petroleum hydroxide section
[edit]Petroleum hydroxide is a non-sensical chemical name and a Google search offers near-to-nothing. My guess is that they might have used some petrochemical solvent combined with a strong base like sodium hydroxide, but this section is unreliable and misleading. I'll remove it, although I am open to arguments as to why it should stay. Spolglans (talk) 14:10, 23 July 2020 (UTC)
