Agreed. We wear goggles (sometimes) when cutting wood.
But, do you read the warning on California hammers? They suggest you wear goggles every time you hammer a nail.
Nothing wrong with goggles. I have a half dozen myself. But every time you hammer a nail?
I wear a helmet, boots, and gloves when I ride a motorcycle. You don't need to tell me that riding a motorcycle is dangerous.
Tell me something I don't know. Otherwise you're wasting everyone's time.
That was my only point in preventing people telling me that the otherwise excellent solvent has deleterious properties (that everyone already knows).
Grandkids. All Roman Catholic. You're doomed. :)
- Water works fine to remove most paper labels. Water is much cheaper than anything else you can suggest for removing the label.
- Gasoline works fine to remove most goop under the labels. The only problem with gasoline is that it (a) stinks and (b) is flammable. Outside is no problem, which is how I do it currently.
But the goal is to dilute the gasoline 10:1 so that it can be stored and used inside. The scientific trick is to find a good diluent that negates the deleterious properties of the gasoline.
If that's too difficult a scientific problem for you, I understand. Engineering a solution isn't always as simple as buying something off the shelf.
