If it drips onto your paint, it’s bye bye paint job. Also, I don’t remember exactly, but I think it might tear up hoses and injectors (especially if you have an older car—but doublecheck that fact).

You might be better off aero-modding. See aerocivic.com for an example.

The more important question might be is it safe for your health. By the way, you might not be able to pass a breathalyzer test after inhaling the fumes. Seriously.
