Both kinds of brake clean are still available.
the best way to test is spray them on brake rotors or any metal surface, chlorinated dries very quickly. squeaky clean surface.
non chlorinated dries slowly, does not work as well.

the chlorinated is very bad for our health. As a mechanic of 20 plus years, I've sprayed a bit of the chlorinated.
When the shop went to the brush on stuff, non spray w a catch tub, the stuff stunk. it took forever to dry. Not a very good job either, needs a lot more elbow grease. Less drum brakes getting cleaned w liquids. better for us anyway.
A lot less of the good stuff is used now.

Dealing w NHRA is better than ANY GOV'T agency.
