Non-toxic industrial strength remover for polyurethane adhesive
Made from 100% American soybeans, Franmar 540PM Polyurethane Adhesive Remover (formerly known as Poly-U) is a specially formulated product that removes polyurethane adhesives from concrete subfloors. If you wish to remove polyurethane finishes from the surface of the wood, use BlueBear 600 GL.
Like all Franmar products, 540PM Polyurethane Adhesive Remover does not produce harsh odors and may be easily cleaned up with water.
NOTE: 540PM Polyurethane Adhesive Remover recommends the use of FranMar 700DG Degreaser (formerly Emerge), for effectiveness.

NOTE: In the spirit of transparency, the manufacturer states on its label: "Warning, this product contains a chemical (N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, NMP) known to the state of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm" According to the manufacturer of SoyGel, there has been a study in California which applied NMP at 100% strength on pregnant rodents for a month, with frequent re-applications to make sure it was still on their skin. The test resulted in smaller size babies. No tests have been conducted on the 40-45% strength used in SoyGel, as requested by the manufacturer. Of course, there are no tests on humans. Although the warning for NMP is required only by the State of California, the manufacturer has chosen to include the warning on product sold in all 50 states.
