    Oh yes I’d expect some of what’s on that list would get you on a list if you tried buying it. Some of the ones that affect polycarbonate look to be paint thinners or the sort of thing found in oil based enamel paint.
    Absolute pain in the star to remove enamel paint. Edit: not even gonna change that auto text 🤣

      Nono, none of them would get you on a list for buying them, they’re basically all common industrial and even household solvents or stuff you’d find in the pool chemical aisle, the issue is you’re effectively suggesting dousing riot police with gasoline as well as things that burn if they get on your skin. Damaging the riot shield is the least of the concerns here. If you did this, they would (rightfully) assume you were trying to SET THEM ON FIRE and you might succeed accidentally given how pyrotechnic riot control can get. This is likely to just get you shot.
