Please instill the habit of the seat belt. If it is moving the seat belts are on...period. (Just down the road a high School senior ran into a tree. The tree was not large and he vehicle simply pushed the tree over. Unfortunately she did not have her belt on and went flying and died. A survivable ac...

Yes it is a good solvent. It will remove paint, loosen grease and crud. It also seems to be good at being reused. Just let the crud settle to the bottom of a container and pour off the good stuff on top.
