I had a cabinet customer bring me a gunstock for refinishing once. He wanted a varnish finish, so I swabbed it first with solvent, then hit it with citristrip, and proceeded with the sanding. The first coat had fisheyes in about every square inch. Upon querying him as to his cleaning/preserving techniques, he confessed to using Armor-All a couple times long ago. Grrrr. It took a lot of work to rid that stock of all traces of it, and lost my arse in the process. (A week long soak in acetone got the bear's share of it, but I tried so many things I couldn't swear to any one of them doing the trick.)
When talking to him about it, he admitted to Armor-Alling the exterior of his Alfa Romeo, too. I really pity the poor bast*rd who finds himself trying to re-paint that thing!
