    Good video. I've been using Citristrip for a couple weeks now. To improve the results, coat it with the stripper, cover the area with saran wrap then let it set overnight. It will take off 3 layers of paint at once.

    To enhance the CitruStrip's efficacy, you can cover or wrap your piece with plastic wrap, which keeps the stripper moist. It is more effective when it is kept moist for longer periods of time. Nice video, careful with those exposed toes!

    @SarahU2000 3 роки тому +9

    I use Citristrip for all of my projects. I am currently stripping mantles and built ins in my grandmother’s 100 year old house. If you put a thick coat of citistrip on the piece then cover with plastic it will get through lots of layers of paint. The trick is to not let it dry out. Once stripper dries it stops working. Also, don’t move the stripper around. Move it as little as possible when you are putting it on.

      @@texasgardenguy , the "2-Minute" is the worst I've ever used, I applied it and returned in about 5 minutes and it evaporated, doing nothing. So I tried again, same results. It might take a layer of latex off, and it may not stink bad, but it's pretty much worthless. I took it back and got a refund, getting Klean Strip, and it's better but costs more. I have a feeling that Citri-Strip is going to get very popular as people realize "the old stuff" is no longer any good.

    Hi. Great video, thanks for the comparieon. I have read that after applying the striper, cover it up with plastic wrap and leave for several hours or overnight if you want to. This prevents the product from drying out and gives it max time to soak into the wood. I have not tried it yet, but I plan to this week. Thanks again for sharing.
