[QUOTE="BadThad, post: 2547701, member: 17261"]You missed water, that's the main ingredient. 2-butoxyethanol - A very good, polar organic solvent. It WILL dissolve PVC plasticizer residue. Used in millions of products but carries some pretty heavy acute and chronic health concerns. KOH - Strong base, provides alkalinity and helps the sodium salt materials dissolve. Na Gluconate - HLB modifier, adds detergency, cleans. Use to fill in HLB gaps with the sodium sulfonate. Sulfonated Sodium salts - The proper name for this class of emulsifiers is "sodium sulfonates". They work by suspending oils and other lipophilic materials in solution. Will likely also act on the plasticizer residue. I believe this product will dissolve PVC residue (2-butoxy) as well as verdigris (high pH). However, I certainly don't condone it's use. I think it's very harsh and somewhat dangerous given the 2-butoxy health concerns.[/QUOTE]
