Let me clarify, I looked at the can, it was Paint and Varnish Remover in gel form. Very strong. Probably stronger than nail polish remover.

It did zero damage to the visor other than a little fading. Using a nice water based dye they actually looked new. I showed them to many other folks at car shows who had done their own with other methods and it was night and day. They didn't actually believe me.

If you are near Charlotte come by, I have 16oz of dye left.

The problem I had was the paint thinner and other cleaners weaken the plastic, especially in the South Florida sun and heat. Simple solution is to go on Ebay UK and buy European visors. They come without the stupid sticker. There was a company in the States that was selling them, I can't recall the price, but it was cheaper to buy off ebay. If you are getting things shipped from there just make sure the seller is willing to send them to the US.
