Seems to have dried up on the bay. I called the manufacturer Starchem themselves to see who sold it locally they were really helpful.

Loctite 7200 gasket remover has always worked for me.  :daumenhoch:

It's readily available at industrial suppliers and off ebay, for around £8 a tin. Best getting two tins as one will only just do a F&F plus bars.

Used liberally, it strips powder and rattle can nightmares for fun, just make sure you wash any residue off prior to refinishing. :crazy2:
