I've ended up with a number of 300ml cans of Safeclene.Â* It is an AF

They are probably from a time when the IT business I was involved in
sold tape backup machines and these would be sold as consumables to
clean the heads.Â* The can says:

"An internationally-approved safety solvent for tape head and drive
cleaning and for general technical maintenance. "

The AF website doesn't mention much.

and there is some safety data eg:

you could burn it in a model aircraft engine or add some to your petrol
But I do9nt see how a methanol based product is 'non flammable'


Oh I looked carefully, Its a jolly old fluorocarbon. Banned for causing
layers of holes in zones or something

hang on to it for taking grease spots out of your tutu.
