Polyurethane adhesive/sealants form long interlocking chains of molecules when they come into contact with the surfaces to be bonded together. These molecule chains are what forms the bond with the surface (fibreglass, metal, wood, etc.) Marine Formula™ penetrates into the polyurethane adhesive sealant (such as 3M™ Marine 5200) and, through a chemical process, begins the process of breaking the interlocking molecule chains. When the chains are broken, the adhesive loses its sticking power.
There are many variables including temperature, evaporation rates, and product being removed. A one inch piece of 3M™5200 can be removed in as little as two minutes and I removed an air conditioner that was adhered with a one foot+ thick piece of 3M™5200 in 29 nine minutes. A big help in speeding up a larger job is the use of a wedge to increase lifting pressure that will help Marine Formula™ contact the adhesive or silicone rubber. Marine Formula™ works best above 65°F and kept in the shade if outdoors to slow down evaporation.
Keep a damp rag on hand and don't let DeBond 2000 Marine Formula™ run to where you might not want it. It will not hurt your gel-coat but will remove decals and decal adhesives as well as soft paints, varnish etc. Just test on an inconspicuous spot with one drop if you are not sure. Soap and water and/or Isopropyl Alcohol will stop the action.
