I have found Kleen Strip Premium Stripper in the thicker "paste" formula to be fantastic. Temperature is a factor on how fast it works. Cooler = Slower. You should work with a clean scraper that is flat for the fastest, easiest, and cleanest results. A little cardboard box is perfect for all of the scrapings and keeping the scraper clean as possible. At 55 degress or better, this stuff strips polyurethane in minutes... It Works Great !!! Nice video... Thank You for sharing and being so generous !!!

My thanks to you for posting this! Especially for the acknowledgement on the difference in the new formula of Citrus Stripper, which I was unaware of. Started stripping a table top last night. Everything you mentioned; color, consistency, application, smell, stickiness, etc are 100% accurate. Thought I was dealing with some type of weird finish or purchased an old bottle, as I've used this brand before with much better results. This stuff was a complete mess and took twice as long to use. Also appreciate you discussing and showing alternatives.

I refinished an old table, many years ago and always wanted to do more. After watching several youtubers I was ready. Yesterday I bought CitriStrip and got started this morning. The table is very old and had a thick bubbled layer of dark finish. I left the stripper on 3 hours before removing. I was left with a bit of finish remaining. I'll probably scrape what's left. The stripper was very sticky and quite difficult to remove. After removal with putty knife, I "scrubbed" more stripper with steel wool, then neutralized twice. I was still left with dark streaks where stripper seemed to collect and dry. Anyway, I have 3 leaves and the base left so will try the last stripper you mention. A thousand thanks for all your great how-to videos!!! I find the whole process very rewarding

I'm using citristrip for an antique chair and applying it outside. Since it's so hot in south Texas summer the chemicals in the stripper became volatile and it doesn't smell pleasant anymore. Actually gave me a big headache and I was using it outdoors. Be careful! Also the stripper left the backrest of my antique oak chair all blotchy and don't know how to fix it. I tried applying it again, cover with plastic, and wait about an hour and it didn't help. Any suggestions on how to fix the blotchiness??? I want it to look even to shellac it.

Sticky mess that had to be scrapped off the tool and after all that mess, it left the dark red stain underneath basically intact😱 Totally crazy amount of work for a pretty bad result. Thanks for the alternatives. This was a particularly thick finish - the stripper does work on other surfaces just not multilayer paint , stain, lacquer

I really enjoy your videos! I've been battling with strippers for varnishes (since lacquer and shellac can be removed easily enough with denatured alcohol or lacquer thinner). There have been advocacy groups fighting and winning in getting methylene chloride and N-methyl pyrrolidone (NMP) off big box store shelves. NMP was what was removed from citristrip and why it doesn't work as well anymore. I've used Cathedral Stone heavy duty paint stripper to remove paint from buildings so was thinking of trying it on wood. Might be a but pricey bit it might be worth it to not have to scrape and sand off all finishes forever more. Hope that helps!

The problem is with the strippers not you. After a couple deaths caused by strippers not being used correctly the government banned the use of the chemical that made strippers work. The ban went into effect spring of this year. I’m slowly stripping 1,000sqft of painted wood floors and I cuss that ban every time I get down to strip an area. I’ve tried all the strippers currently on the market and none of them are very effective. I’ve found you have to put the stripper down in a very heavy coat then let it set 24 hours. To do this you also have to cover the stripper with plastic to prevent it drying out before you remove it. I’d luv to hear if anyone has a better option.

Couple of ideas 1. cover the stripper with plastic so it does not dry as fast 2. Drano as a stripper for oiled surfaces (not film finishes) Very caustic (skin burner) but virtually no fumes. Also there is a product called " Peel Away" which is really intended for removing regular painted surfaces. This stuff can remove up to 7 layers of an oil painted finish. Pretty nasty stuff -again caustic and takes 24 hours typically and needs to be covered in plastic. You could pressure wash it off and then neutrilize it with vinegar. Good for anything ornate. When you peel off the plastic all the paint comes off. You are very tenacious.

And willingness to learn from failure. I have a teak sideboard. Only the top is faded. ( In one of your recent videos, I heard the reason why. Trying to remember. Veneer vs solids?) I am nervous to start - do I strip it? Top only or entire piece? Maybe it was just originally oiled and I could just oil the top? So for your series, perhaps you could teach us how some of these pieces were finished originally? Your best guess?

Thanks for this video, I’ve been using Citristrip and have applied it 3 times to an actual antique that’s from late 1800’s per clients request, almost the entire surface has intricate carvings and seems like the Citristrip is not doing as well in some parts, but we’ll in others. But it’s SO messy and sticky, big job to remove between coats, mineral spirits and drill scrubbers is where I’m at right now, long process. May try your other recommendation Klean stripper

Great video! I think you should have removed the white water stain first.

I am restoring a MCM Credenza. It is Danish in origin. Teak veneer assumed over particle board. It was a roadside find in fairly rough shape, but the veneer was pretty decent. I used 3 applications of Citris Strip with steel wool and mineral spirits between each application. The first two applications were for approx. 40 minutes each. The last one was 1.5 hours. The wood is WAY darker than when I began the stripping process. Anybody have any advice?
