Paint remover that works?

Bummer they removed paint remover with MC off the market. I was lucky to find a qt. a year or so ago, have to use it sparingly right. Rec'd it with a small leak too POP! the can goes air change. Stuffs nasty agree, I keep it in two containers under a spare irrigation boxparanoid, too close the project.

Anyway, have you found another liquid that works? I'm working on chrome emblems. MC doesn't harm chrome, so I imagine what's left on the market the same though seems you have to leave what's available on the part 10 years for it to work

Edit: I know lacquer thinner is a great option sometimes. I'm going to soak a 400 badge, see how it goes.

Lacquer thinner does the trick sometimes. Took the paint off these with a nylon brush. Wasn't much of a paint though, from factory.
