I just stumbled across the thread. Interesting perspectives all around. Thanks, skyking!
As to the topic: My parents used this technique on craft sized projects in teh 1970s.
I think it influenced my go-to method for chemically stripping paint. Pour the stripper on and cover it with 4mil polyethylene, then squeegee it out instead of brushing. I did this on the roof of a Squareback, and when I peeled the plastic back, 70% of the paint was fused to the plastic and I was looking at the original phosphate coating on the German steel. Not so much luck with vertical surfaces but it really holds the volatiles to the task.
Citrus based strippers, not the stuff with Methyl Mercury.
