I called Soy-gel directly and was told (1) was the new name vs (2) was the older name. Their customer service was very helpful. Look online, Google them, for their number. I like the product for oil and latex based paints. Good luck, Andrew

I have talked with the tech support on the phone and was told that all the formulas are same in terms of active ingredients, they are just labeled differently for different uses. Some people/contexts need specifically labeled products. There are differences in thickness in some of the products. There is the spray which is pure liquid, the hydrogel which is a light gel, the opthalmalgic formula which is extremely thick (and hurts like HECK in the eye, much prefer the hydrogel or liquid for the eye). Those are the ones I know. There is another question here about which formula is best for what, and that is a very valuable discussion, many of the answers contain valuable animal care insights. What I don't know is if the "Hot Spot" formula is the pure liquid or the gel (in terms of getting what they consider to be the best thickness for that use). You could call their Tech Support and ask them-- they were very friendly to me. But yes, the 16oz is the best deal and has the trigger sprayer which is so much easier to operate, especially when your hands are slippery. I also use this product on myself, they make a whole line for human use but it is ALL the same thing.

I don't really know as I only purchased Negligee. I was disappointed in the product, overall. I was looking for an alternative to GEL polish, which takes a long time to remove. CND Vinylux, unfortunately, was not the answer to GEL. I'd be curious to hear what you think of the product once you use Vinylux. Thanks.

I am not sure what the difference is, but I used both on the canvas of our pop-up camper to try to remove the mildew and mold from the winter . The Iosso removed it and the Oxi Clean didn't !!

I do not know the difference, but it doesn't work on removing labels from bottles!!!

There's a product called "Goof Off" Graffiti remover. It works well to remove the 3M urethane at least within the first 30 minutes or so. On canvas it would probably get it off mostly, but might still leave a little. Works great for getting it off of a vehicle or window.

Hard to say since Soy Gel can be reused up to 3 or 4 times. After the first application of Soy Gel, scrape of the gel and separated paint and collect in container. You can immediately screen out the paint solids or you can wait a day of two for the paint solids to settle to the bottom and pour off the soy gel. Reuse the soy gel. Square footage per gallon is going to depend on number and type of paint coating and the effectiveness of your reuse of the product.

Not sure the difference, but I have been using the pure absorbic acid in my diy face creams, and have been very satisfied with this product. Will purchase again.

I don't have the chemical formula to know the difference. I have not used the Marine version. I regularly use the regular Spray Nine on just about everything, including my boat, fishing equipment, and coolers. It is the best all around cleaner I have used and it is a great disinfectant. After testing my first bottle, I bought the spray bottle in the picture and bought gallons to refill it. It is easy to refill with a funnel and I use it on everything. Follow the directions and it works.

There is no difference. Both do the same job. I called 3M and they could not tell me the difference. The general purpose cleaner is effective for removing adhesive.

this product is divided in 3 components;) #3 is thicker and has polishing compound ingredients,could damage the paint if you press harder or use excessive force and too many rotations,,is made for heavier scratches.#2 is softer and easier for paint, less or minor scratches..#1 is basically for shinning only.

What is the difference between a standard and sweep spray? I am not sure which one I have.

It should work very well. You'll need a couple of stiff bristle brushes to work the gelled paint off once the stripper does it's thing. You'll want more than one so you can clean one while using the other.

I've used both. Can't tell any difference. Long lasting and moderate odor control. Tracks everywhere but a good high-pile towel or mat helps that.

Hi, we used this product on a concrete slab but were unsuccessful due to the texture of the slab being rough and not smooth. It did lift the paint but not all, which left lots to chisel off painstakingly. I gave up. I would not recommend the Soy Gel product for this kind of job. When we built on our screen porch we had a stamped concrete company do a design on it and they used a pressure washer to remove the old paint. That worked very well. I'm saving the Soy Gel for smooth surfaces.

No need for any primer, ever. This paint is an Urethane-acrylic formula. It adheres to "hard-to-stick" surfaces, including polyurethane and varnish, without a primer. Use foam brushes. If 2 coats are desired, wait 24 hours, although it will be dry to touch after an hour or so. Don't rush to get to the second coat because you may have "draping effect." Light sanding with a high # black sandpaper followed by a tack cloth to remove all dust. If done well, this paint lasts almost forever, so take your time.

the difference is one is literally vinyl and the other is a type of spray on concrete called gunite
