I also looked at the Pledge website yesterday and it appears they only dropped the "it" for Canada, maybe to make multilingual packaging easier/more consistent in the name. It's still called "revive-it" on the Pledge US site.

It's also a lot thinner than I expected. I don't know why I was thinking it would be like the consistency of dish soap or some other kind of thicker, more viscous gel/wax sort of stuff. Nope, it's basically water.

Also for whatever it's worth, nowhere on the bottle or in the ingredients list does it specifically identify as polyurethane-based. Instead most of the ingredients are obscured behind a wall of "Proprietary ________" names.
Yup, it's as liquid as water, and why it's super easy to drip a few drops on articulation and let it seep in and wipe the excess.

And for the ingredients, yeah.. it's one of "those" scenarios but people are saying that you can get polyurethane in hardware stores, probably online too.

But I can assure you that it does work well. Unless the "gap" that causes the looseness it very bad, this stuff will make articulation feel like new, if not better, just don't forget to move them a few times in the first few days to ensure that it dries properly and doesn't end up overly "stuck" (but moving the articulation carefully and you'll unstuck it easily).
