 Got to stick my nose in here, if you research it, you will find that
concentrated solutions of methylene chloride are a confirmed carcinogenic.

That said, I would still use it (if available), use gloves and put a fan to
blow the fumes away from me during assembly. But then, I do this kind of
stuff every day. My job.

Just be careful. Your too good to lose.
