Oh, now I see what this is all about. If the solvent solution was called Homeless jOe Brew, it wouldn't be a problem to try other methods. Well I've got news for you. Antique furniture restoration folks have been using various solvents to strip and/or clean wood far longer than there was a so called wonko brew. Or maybe you actually invented acetone and alcohol??? If this is your claim to fame, and it means so much to you, maybe you should also take credit for rain rinsing bird shit off of windshields. You could call it Wonko's Aqueous Precipitate.
