To this mixture, a surfactant, inhibitor, and cellulose derivative may be added to produce a gel-form property. The product may be used to remove coatings and sealants present on vertical and horizontal surfaces and hard to reach areas commonly encountered when performing maintenance on aviation fuel tanks and similar equipment. Of key importance for the remover is its safety to aluminum and aluminum alloy substrates as demonstrated by modified test methods for sandwich corrosion, for example, ASTM F1110.
