DIGGERS™ Paint Stripper Domestic Formulation is a low odour, biodegradable, methylene chloride free alternative that deeply penetrates and quickly lifts paint for easy removal.

• Indoor/outdoor use

Features:

• Water wash-up.

• Low odour.
• Gel formula for vertical surfaces (thixotropic).
• Works in 30 minutes and stays wet for 24 hours – allows you to complete a whole project in a single application.
• Methylene chloride free – contains no flammable ingredients.
• Covers approximately 2m² per litre.

Please note: The time required for full penetration of the stripper into the painted surface will depend on the the quality of the paint and the number of coats to be removed.

Application:

1. Always stir 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.
2. 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.
3. 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.

Safety:
Follow safety directions on the product label. Wear suitable protective clothing, gloves and eye/ face protection when using this product.
