Paint & Varnish Citrus Stripper - 1 Quart - Strips Multiple Layers - Removes Latex and Oil Based Paints - No Methylene Chloride No NMP Powerful Formula

It works very well. As per instructions, using plastic helps expedite the process. It still works without the plastic, just not as quickly. BIG takeaway, be sure to have something below. It's like the "wushi finger hold", the worst part is the clean up! The paint easily comes off of the door with little to no elbow grease. But then it falls and sticks to the floor (or whatever is below it). So have a big enough piece of cardboard or incredibly large piece of paper. You can use a tarp, too but disposable will be ideal.

If you’ve ever spent HOURS trying to scrape off old paint or varnish only to end up sweaty, frustrated, and questioning your life choices… this stuff is for you. 🙃 This stripper is designed to remove aftermarket paint, latex, polyurethane, shellac, varnish, acrylic, oil-based coatings, and more, usually in a single application. I used it to remove my OLD anti slip liquid in my shower! You literally: ✔️ Shake well ✔️ Apply it ✔️ Wait/check every 5 minutes (I started scraping at10) ✔️ Scrape it off That’s it. Minimal drama. Maximum satisfaction. 😂 I also love that it has a fresh citrus scent instead of the “abandoned factory fumes” vibe most paint removers have. Perfect for DIY projects, furniture flips, home renos, and stripping off years of questionable decisions one layer at a time. Just keep in mind: it’s best for aftermarket paints/coatings, not factory baked-on finishes or vehicle paint. DIY-friendly but strong enough for the pros too!

Stripping desk from 1920. Followed directions left it for for about 32 hours wrapped in plastic. Took off the varnish and hardly touched the stain underneath. No bubble effect just the nasty looking sludge. Scrapers and wipes will be your friend. Will definitely take multiple attempts to get it all. Washing with a damp rag does wonders after scraping. Smell alone is worth it not being very heavy duty. Good luck on your project.

I sure recommend it if you're looking for a good product to strip the paint of any item. Given that it's a thick material, makes it easy to handle and avoid any big splashes. It gets the job done for sure.

Doesn’t work well with multiple coats of paint. I left it on for 24 hours with plastic over it. It basically glued the plastic to the wall. Citristrip worked in a few hours through all layers.

it work well but it was a breezy day so it kept drying up. once dry, the product stopped working. I had to reapply several times. I learned to work on smaller areas until I was ready to move on. Also, the product has very little smell so I may complete my project inside, away from the wind, but well-ventilated.

Didn’t really do anything I would spent the extra money and get citristrip

Love this stuff! Great quality and value for the money. Scrapes paint off all my DIY projects.
