I had a crusty old paper gasket that was caked onto a thermostat cover. I felt it did help, but it took three tries at 30 minutes each. So not fast BUT it helped me get the job done. Between coats I scraped and hit it with brake cleaner, followed by more scraping, which helped too.
so much for the Amazon reccomendations, To start I had to work on the brush head and open the passage to get anything to flow out, I bought this to remove gasket for engine covers and base on an older Suzuki 750 with 2400 miles on it. should have been a breeze but the Permatex foaming gasket remover only made it worse as the gasket had no possibility of peeling off in larger sections now, SHAME on Permatex for even selling this inferior, expensive product. BTW I've only been wrenching on motorcycles for over 50 yrs. my bad for expecting a shortcut. I will be requesting a refund from Amazonk

Brake fluid works well ...if the gasket area can be heated a little then add the brake fluid...leave for 15 mins then scrape off
Worked fine.

It's better used for sealants instead of actual gaskets
