Multi-Strip heavy duty
paint remover is a unique, environmentally safe paint remover designed
to remove up to 15 layers of paint in one application. While other paint
removers evaporate in a short time and lose their strength, the longer
you leave on Multi-Strip heavy duty paint remover the more layers of
paint it removes. It is biodegradable, non-flammable, non-combustible
and contains no methylene chloride or caustic. Multi-Strip heavy duty
paint remover is odor-free and can be easily cleaned up with Ready Strip
Wash paint remover clean-up. As a paste it clings easily to vertical
surfaces and completely fills detailed areas. For application, it can be
brushed, rolled or sprayed on the surface with an airless paint sprayer.
In addition, it creates less waste for easy disposal. It requires no
neutralization (neutral pH).

Hints |
|
If Multi-Strip heavy duty

excessive heat conditions, the applied area is difficult to
scrape, try the following:
|
|
|
Misting the applied area
with Ready Strip Wash paint remover clean-up prior to
removal makes lifting of the paint or varnish easier.
|
|
|
Misting with Ready Strip
Wash paint remover clean-up also reactivates the product if
it feels dry to the touch.
|
|
|
Any residue left on a
surface should be removed within a short period of time so
that paint residue will not dry up and re-adhere to the
surface.

Since it is often
hard to know the type or the amount of paint on a surface, two
small test areas should be stripped to determine the proper
application and dwell time needed for paint removal to occur.

Multi-Strip heavy duty paint remover
is applied to the surface at a total of approximately 1/32" thick (30
mils) with a brush, roller, putty knife or sprayer. Can be sprayed
effectively using an airless sprayer. Drill mix
before spraying - Remove filters from sprayer & spray gun - Submerge
pump directly into remover. Do not use suction hose - Use NEW 1/4"
or 3/8" airless hose.
Use at least a 1 GPM piston sprayer, .019-.021 reversible spray tip. A
wet mil gauge should be used to measure thickness. Multi Strip
heavy duty paint remover will easily cling to vertical surfaces. Use
your tool to fill detailed, intricate or grooved surfaces. For best
results apply Multi-Strip heavy duty paint remover at temperatures
between 60° F and 80° F. Product activity is reduced below a temperature
of 60° F and may require additional dwell time before all layers of
paint are removed. If product freezes let thaw and stir vigorously until
product is consistent. Coverage for Multi-Strip heavy duty paint remover
varies between 50 and 75+ sq. ft. per gal. depending upon the type and
amount of paint on a surface. No Neutralization required. Clean
tools promptly after use with soap and water.

Multi-Strip - Performance
Information
|
|
Our test
boards had 15 painted layers.
|
What's on
the boards?
2 layers latex primer (white)
2 layers oil base Rust Oleum (pink)
2 layers latex (blue)
2 layers latex (yellow)
1 layer latex Krylon (purple)
2 layers oil base Rust Oleum (pink)
2 layers latex (dark blue)
2 layers latex (white)
Observations during use:
We applied Multi-Strip to our test board in a temperature controlled
environment. The product had a very spreadable consistency with
little to no odor.
Recommendations for Multi-Strip:
At 24 hours we used the ProGrip2 putty knife to easily remove 13 of the
15 painted layers. This product performed equally the same as
Strip Tox except that it is not designed for lead based paint and its
consistency is much looser whereas Strip Tox is more paste-like.
If you are not stripping lead based paint and do not have many vertical
surfaces to strip then Multi-Strip would be a better buy at $25.00
savings per gallon.

Suggested Removal Techniques
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
Easiest removal is achieved using a
4in or wider razor blade scraper (commonly known as a wallpaper remover)
to lift the remover/paint off the surface.
|
Easiest removal is achieved using a
Back To Nature
stainless steel scraper to strip remover/paint from

Use a Back To Nature Stainless Steel
Scraper with 5 function detail blade to lift the paint off the surface.
Use a stiff bristle brush with Ready Strip Wash paint remover clean-up
to remove any residue.
|
In some cases, it may look like the
last layer of paint is still on the surface. This is not a dried layer,
but paint which has been emulsified so it can be removed.
|
| |
| Masonry, Concrete
Surfaces |
|
|
| |
Remove bulk of remover/paint with a
stiff putty knife or wire brush. Use a wire brush with Ready Strip Wash
paint remover clean-up to remove any residue remaining. Residue can also
be removed with a high pressure washer where permitted.
|
Agitate or rough up remover/paint on
the surface with a wire brush without attempting removal. This helps to
lift bottom layers from the surface. Use a 4in or wider razor blade
scraper (wallpaper remover) or stiff putty knife (pipe railings or
irregular surfaces should use the putty knife) to lift remover/paint off
the surface. Use a wire brush with Ready Strip Wash paint remover
clean-up to remove any residue.
|
|
|
|
Safety goggles are recommended for eye
protection. Wear protective gloves such as butyl rubber,
neoprene. Maintain adequate ventilation especially in confined
areas. If spraying or misting is expected use NIOSH approved chemical
cartridge (organic vapor) respiratory equipment (full face respirator
recommended. In case of inhalation - remove victim to fresh air and
provide oxygen if breathing is difficult. In case of eye contact - flush
exposed areas with large quantities of water. In case of skin contact -
wash skin with soap and water. Use emollient skin creams. In case of
ingestion - do not induce vomiting. Call physician immediately.
