Dykem remover:


Dykem, unless there's been a change in formulation, uses acetone as a
solvent. You can buy a gallon of acetone from hardware stores for
slightly
more than the cost of one pint at your source. I'm having more than
just a little trouble with that idea. Acetone works very well for
cleaning surface plates, too, so having a gallon on hand is more than a
good idea.


And for those whose wives wear nail polish (fortunately, mine doesn't),

it's
used for removing that too!



Yep!

Nail polish remover is nothing more than acetone that's buffered with some
kind of oil. It works great for removing nail polish, but wouldn't be a
good choice for removing Dykem from concrete----because of the oil.

My bride is like yours------sees no need for nail polish. I like women
like that -------very down to earth.
