Default US Bans Most Uses of Methylene Chloride

Better stock up for when we follow suit. This is fresh news, basically all consumer grade applications of the chemical are being nixed. I’m not sure on the timeline. But this - if we mirrored the US initiative - would mean all the good paint strippers will disappear from retail shelves.

I'm all for it to be banned, Methylene Chloride is very toxic and not to be mishandled in any way.
