Questions & Answers

My kids attempted to paint a metal chair with old nail polish - will this remove it?

An espatula allows you to have a better removal of paint, and it is great for removing paint.

For one wooden chair, how many cans do I need?

It is possible to do so

It will remove grease and oil that has been on my hands for 14 years? There is no washing machine available in the kitchen over the stove. A few times have we tried. Let me know if you can ?

A dark piece of furniture that was about 24 years old was treated with this product. I was pleasantly surprised at how well it worked. I love how easy it is If I tried it, I would definitely consider it

Are you able to use it ?

The garage with its door open is a good place to start, but the basement may not be. Although not as strong as before, it's still pretty good

Are you working on a new Unless I switch to the old software, this won't work as well
3/5

Citristrip has been used on multiple projects for me in the past. THESE THINGS ARE NOT THE SAME AS THEY USED TO BE. There used to be an orange tint to the spray on. that it is practically clear, it makes sense. Shaking it a little bit helped a bit, but it didn't work almost as well as the stuff I used in my last project. With this technique, several layers of old paint just fell right off of the piece in a matter of minutes instead of taking 10 minutes. It barely made a dent in the paint now. After sanding most of the wood, I painted In addition to being totally perplexed by the difference, I did some research and found that many people experienced the same thing, and that one person actually telephoned the manufacturer and was told that the formula changed recently. Therefore, that would explain why I was unable to find it at home depot a few months ago.

The gel is on its way
3/5

Specifically, I bought these so I could remove the paint from an old door before refinishing it. It would have been wiser for me to buy the gel based on my gut feeling. I was able to cover one side of the door, but not the other. As a result, I went to a hardware store to get a big bottle of the gel in addition to the spray I already had. I tried it but it wasn't enough for my project, so I think you should layer on more stuff.

Very easy to use
5/5

I had to reduce the size of my work significantly. I'm happy with how it works. The paint on my metal front door was stripped off with oil-based paint. The product starts to lift layers of old paint off where I scraped it away with my metal scraper within a couple of hours of applying. I applied generously and let it sit for a day or two. This is a very simple process.

It was just a simple matter of applying a layer overnight and the paint peeling away in the morning.

Worked on medals but did not work on enamel A John Deere lawn mower was treated with this solution after it had been set for two The first part of the experiment was to work around edges, then I scraped and wire brushed with an angle grinder to remove the remainder
3/5

I did not try latex on this experiment.

I love it! The paint on an aluminum milk churn was thirty years old
5/5

I used this method to remove it. We were able to complete the transaction so quickly. Removes the many layers with a light, easy to use brush. Around an hour later, I washed off the water. I love it.

I was sort of able to do the job
5/5

repaired an old Craftsman box with an electric sander that removed about 75% of the work. The rest of it had to be done.

I absolutely love it
5/5

I found the product to be exactly as described. Here are some before and after photos. It took me a little time to figure out how to remove sloppy work done by a handyman. The old stain that had been on vinyl siding was cleaned in minutes with this product. I like how the design looks and how easy it is I greatly appreciate you doing this!.
