Given that most households will have a can there must be a lot of jet engines out there.
It is pretty good for removing tar, and the glue residue from stickers too.
It is totally useless as a penetrating oil or lubricant, which is what it is marketed as

And if you ever have your car nicked, then recovered and it's returned to you covered in fingerprint powder then WD40 and warm soapy water also clears that mess off as well.0 -

Last time I looked, they used cyanoacrylate vapour for pulling finger prints........“I may not agree with you, but I will defend to the death your right to make an a** of yourself.”

Get a cheap interior dash cleaner from Wilkinsons with a microfibre cloth. Then move up to something like Meguiars Quik Detailer Interior if that doesn't shift it.The man without a signature.0

Do not follow this advice if you care about your car, T-cut should never be the fall back position to remove stubborn marks or stains, it's just plain lazy.

Most likely because in The Olden Days, "proper" T-cut was an abrasive compound that removed the top layer of paint.
Fine on a Proper Olden Days Car with 12 coats of enamel, somewhat problematic on a "modern" car with its ultra thin layer of water based "paint" covered with a "waterproof" lacquer, that can barely resist rainwater, and bird pooh goes through to the metal.
Luckily, T-cut is now just a very very very mildly abrasive polish, and is about as effective as a damp cloth.I want to go back to The Olden Days, when every single thing that I can think of was better.....
