APPLICATION Always shake/mix well before use. Apply a thick coat using a paint brush or roller. The paint stripper will begin to work after approximately 30 minutes as it penetrates into the paint and softens it. Unlike Methylene Chloride based paint strippers, DIGGERS Paint Stripper Domestic Formulation will not make the paint blister but will gently soften the paint so that it can be scraped off. The time required for full penetration of the stripper into the painted surface will depend on the quality of the paint and the number of coats to be removed. Use a paint scraper or steel wool to remove paint before paint rehardens. If paint remains after scraping, apply a second coat. To prevent damage on delicate timbers use a non-metallic scourer to remove paint. If performing a clear finish, conduct a trial on an inconspicuous area. Do not use on plastic, rubber, linoleum or fibreglass surfaces. Do not use hot air guns or torches with paint stripper. Wash surface with water to remove residue. Alternatively use DIGGERS Methylated Spirits if surface is affected by water or there is a danger of raising or swelling the timber. Allow surfaces to dry thoroughly before redecorating.
