You see, station wagons are faster than sedans due to the improved aerodynamics of the long roof (if you don't believe me, why else would they put luggage racks that generate down force on the big V8 wagons) and you need stronger adhesive to keep the woodgrain on at speed (just think how embarrassing it would be to have the woodgrain vinyl flapping while you lap a Corvette or Viper). The 3M stuff just happens to be strong enough to dissolve the mighty station wagon woodgrain glue. Seriously, I should have put an "among other applications" at the end of my last sentence.
