Paint & Varnish Remover - Water Based, Toxic & Solvent Free Paint Stripper for Ceramic, Concrete, Wood, Plaster, Masonry (500ml)

Brilliant! I originally bought this product due to the low price. I thought if it didn't work, at least I hadn't spent a lot of money. I purchased it in 2023, put it in the cupboard, and completely forgot about it until two nights ago. I am redecorating my hallway, stairs, and landing, and needed to remove 6 layers of gloss wood paint from my bannister (handrail). Armed with a paintbrush, gloves, and clingfilm, I went to work. It was easy to apply and did not drip. I wrapped as I moved down the stairs, applying the stripper generously. It has a smell, but it's not unpleasant or overpowering. Be careful not to get it on your skin. I absent-mindedly touched my face with my gloves, and the skin started to sting immediately. A quick wipe using cold water and everything was fine, no burn or marks. I left my bannister wrapped up with product for 24 hours, and the results were fantastic! Removal was as quick and easy as applying it. The stripper removed all layers of paint, and in places, some of the varnish on the wood. If you enjoy peeling things, you will love this part of the process. It was VERY satisfying! I am planning to do one covering, leaving for a few hours only, to remove the varnish, before I repaint it. I've attached some before-and-after photos. I highly recommend this product.

I used on metal works well , Can discoloure some of the original metal, Works well on wood , would definitely recommend

Really good stuff ! No nasty stink of fumes and it strips varnish and paint .

Used on paint on wood but it did not really cope with the job, done a little bit of paint softening but not really up to the job I had better luck using a Carbine blade scraper witch save a lot of time.

I needed a paint stripper to remove the black powder-coat paint on a 3D printer resin vat because the factory powder-coat paint had started to bubble and peel and flake off the vat and contaminate the resin. I googled all my options and Google AI said to use this Eco-Systems Home Strip Paint and Varnish Remover, applying a thick coat and leaving for a few hours in a plastic bag (to retain moisture in the air) and if the paint didn't come off, to leave it for 24hrs. After a few hours nothing at all happened, and after 24hrs nothing more continued to happen. I tried scoring the paint surfaces with a fine grade nail board, and left it another 24hrs. Still nothing happened. In the end I just used a mid-grade nail board and removed the powder coating where it was already peeling/flaking and managed to then sand down the paint on around the top rim. As for the sides, well, no joy at all. I shall be purchasing a completely different product as this one is useless - or is it Google AI that i useless? On the plus side, this may work on some paints - probably doors and window frames etc, and it does smell nice - like liquorice, and it is easy to apply.

I used this to remove multiple layers of paint and varnish from the handrail in my house. It took 3 hours in total. I was worried it would not work having read the previous reviews but i honestly didn’t want to use a heat gun not knowing what paint was under the layers (our house is 100 years old). Here’s what I found - if you apply it thinly it won’t do much other than feel sticky, if you apply it very thickly it will work wonders. The areas with the thickest amount of product starting bubbling and lifting the paint underneath within 10 minutes of application. I left it for 1hour. In the areas I just ‘brushed’ the product thinly not much happened so I reapplied and it was ready for scraping soon after. The consistency is like thick wall paper paste. You do have to plop it on generously like you’re making an egg and mayo sandwich and not like your painting. It does not slip off or drip which was great. There was very little to no smell. It didn’t hurt when it touched my skin. I ordered the smallest tub for my handrail (standard wooden handrail in a house) and I used 3/4 of it. The 3 hours consisted of applying the product, scraping off the layers of paint, washing the handrail down, sanding down and clearing up. This product, when used properly works and I would definitely recommend it. It’s so easy and satisfying.

I honestly don't understand how some comments complain this stripper does "nothing" - I'm convinced these people just put it on like it's some kind of paint/a very thin layer ...+4 layers of paint on our door, and this is the result after just round 2! Door is CAKED in paint, during the 1st application the black layer already started bubbling away - very happy! You need to slap as much as possible on, then put foil on top - ideally leave it overnight, done. Don't mind it requires couple rounds, it's not a crazy strong stripper which we can't buy as a "normal person" anyway. Smell is very subtle as well.

This stuff is really easy to apply and remove! I've taken off one star because the results can be a bit variable and lifts the paint quite unevenly but I'm not sure if that's a me issue or a product issue. I apply a thick layer of this to my surface and leave it for an hour or maybe longer depending how many layers of paint there are, and then I wipe it off and scrub it using a wire brush or scrubber to remove as much of the paint and product as possible. I've found that the removal can be quite patchy and some area will need more than one coat, but other than that it's an excellent product. It doesn't smell bad and is non toxic which is a bonus.

Results were mixed. Some areas it removed the paint well and then on a spot right next to it it just left a gooey mess that wouldn't scrape off. Used on old wooden staircase. No strong smell which was good.

Tar bara bort plast färg. + burken sprucken i botten när den kom. Mycket dåligt slängde skiten
