Avoid working in direct sunlight or wind. Wear Circa 1850 Stripping Gloves and protective eyewear. Protect work area with polyethylene or foil sheet. Pour some stripper into a foil or metal container. Brush a generous coat onto .1-.4m² (1-4ft²) of surface and let stand for 5 minutes or until paint blisters. Keep area being stripped completely saturated with stripper. If stripper dries out, reapply to reactivate. Remove softened finish using the paint brush or a scraper. Use Circa 1850 Maple Scraper to avoid gouging wood surfaces. If finish is exceptionally thick and some residue remains, repeat the procedure. Remove finish residue with Circa 1850 Finishing Pads or steel wool dipped in remover. Allow surface to dry. Sand wood surfaces lightly prior to staining or refinishing.
For exterior use or vertical surfaces use Circa 1850 Heavy Body Paint & Varnish Remover.
