Max Strip Paint & Varnish Stripper 32oz - Paint Stripper for Multiple Layers of Acrylic, Latex, Oil & Water-Based Paints, varnishes. for Wood, Metal, Masonry, Plaster, Tile, molding.

Brilliant product, would say if you know there is alot of paint then will definitely need multiple applications. Smell isn't terrible which is always beneficial, thickness is like pva glue. Good value for money.

After leaving for 1 hour, it managed to affect the 1st layer of paint, which still needed to be scrapped off with a lot of effort.To have any affect on paint, it needs to be painted on very thickly. Since it is a very water substance, it is only suitable for flat surfaces - it will drip off of vertical surfaces.In the end, using it is little better than just scraping the paint off by hand, without using paint a chemical stripper.I would also be careful using it indoors; it did make me feel very dizzy. You'll need to have all windows and doors open.

Wouldn’t get the paint off had to resort to a sand down and re/paint !

This gel like product was easy to paint on, didn't drip or run when applied. Directions were clear and easy to follow.Unfortunately, it did not work to remove any of the varnish or paint on my chairs. I tried all of the techniques recommended, wrapped it in cellophane, left overnight, kept moist etc. and still none of the varnish or paint lifted or was able to be scraped off.
