If you’re stuck in a bind and need something from the store klean strip stripper works great in 8 hours…. Stripoxy 6842 works great heated to 165-175 degrees Fahrenheit pulls powder in about 25 minutes. It’s about $30 a gallon and mixes 50/50 with water. I’m $80 in my setup but I only got a gallon to do small projects.
It's "dangerous" because a Senator's relative was "unsmart" enough to clean a tank that contained methylene chloride without adequate ventilation and died. She then pushed legislation through congress to outlaw methylene chloride. The reason it is now expensive is all of the new regulations included in the bill that drove up the cost of manufacturing.
Ya know what,.. I've been buying this brand of stripper for years,.. and since they banned the methylene chloride,.. this product not only sucks ballz,.. but they damn near doubled the price... I use to by this a out 25-28 dollars. Gallon,.. now it's doubled for this brand,.. and it is tripled for rock miracle, (that don't work either).. bc of the ban... I did get methylene chloride online for 25/gallon+ 90 for shipping,.. I can not wait for the real stuff to get here,.. the only thing I don't miss is getting this splashed on my skin,.. burns like a mofo !!.. Anyways.. that's my 2 cents
Holy crap! Ok you’ll get a kick outta this. I make original airframe art. Replicating airframe skin and such. I made a Chiefs shield a while ago and messed it up at the final powder stage. Not knowing, I tried to use something like this but painted it on. Nnnnnnope. So I took it to a sand blasting company who made it into scrap aluminum. I had to begin the project all over again. THEN I messed up another project. Different one all together. It was horrible because my dumb ass got in too much of a rush and didn’t clean it properly. This time I used a vat of acetone for 24 hrs. It worked…ish. I had to do a lot of scraping. My recent screw up I sanded the part clean. Yep been a bit rough in the old shop lately but I’m learning as I go and folks like you give me a good heads up on how to avoid my next screw up! Thx!
Soy Gel Franmar(I think its Blue Bear now) costs 4x as much but it will work faster than overnight(havent tested powdercoat specifically) also you dont have to submerge the part, an even coating will work and then you can scrape it off with one of those lodge beefy plastic potscrapers and used the removed paint as new soygel to leave it on other parts that maybe didnt remove as evenly so you would use way less may cost less or the same but more fiddling and faster removal time........ Need a head to head comparison with KleanStrip premium to see who comes out ontop apples to apples comparisons...... Not sure if soygel is an endocrine disruptor but likely it is.....
Goof Off works on my aluminum. Pulls the coating off in seconds. It’s $26 a gallon at Lowe’s and Home Depot. On our aluminum parts, we cannot use a wire brush or wheel. But, there’s absolutely no need. Just a rag and a dab of Goof. In and out.
yes it works perfectly. I just tried it on a fender and 12 hours later it all came off. What do you think Klean strip aircraft clean? It says it will take to paint in 45 minutes as one $29
Strange, i bought this from home depot to strip a set of wheels i have and oddly enough it only worked on 1 face, did nothing to my other faces/ barrels, i did brush it onto all of them the same way i might buy more and try submerging to hopefully get better results, i didn't know if it was just a mediocre stripper or if i was doing something wrong
@@CycleFab Fortunately just doing the wheel face (removed from a 3-piece wheel), I actually just made the bath in an old plastic saucer for sledding, wheel face is in there now. Thanks again for the insight!
@@Mlive722 actually amazing! I poured a whole gallon of the gel paint stripper from HD in a big, shallow plastic container. Let the wheel faces sit for an hour and it’s easily falling off. If you are doing a whole wheel though you’ll probably want another gallon or 2. I was doing multi-piece wheels so the face alone is removable.
Double check your pricing again....I buy 5 gallons at a time of methylene chloride based stripper and it's about $200 delivered. Recently, because of the delays getting it, I purchased 5 gallons of non-methylene chloride stripper from the same company and it was more - $350 delivered. $55 a gallon for this stuff is pricey....unless that's your only option then I guess it doesn't matter. Have a great day.
Great video, thank you! quick question, considering this is a solvent, what material should the vat be made from? Also what type of gloves do you use when working with this product?
Metal would probably be best for the vat, but in the video I used a heavy duty Rubbermaid tub. When using this stripper I always use thick heavy duty rubber gloves. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Awesome video.....just a couple questions ❓ Can the vat or tub used be made of plastic? I need to strip several large tubular steel suspension parts and some have polymer bushings in them.....what are your thoughts there?
The only way to be sure is to test it. Remember all plastics are polymers, but not all polymers are plastics. Find out what it is you're dealing with material wise first. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching and commenting.
@@CycleFab thank you for responding! I was looking at the B17 and B14 products from the link you shared. Do you think I have to go that route due to these suspension parts being commercially produced?
I’m curious, I have tried this clean strip and it didn’t work, however mine came in the same container, but the actual stripper itself if a yellow/gold color, maybe you have a newer mix? Gonna have to get another container of it and see if it works any better
Yeah, I've got a Suzuki GS550 that I've got to get back to. Making a Street Tracker out of it, plan to powder coat and Cerakote it only, no paint. We'll see...
It should, it will just take longer. This stripper works fine for the DIY powders that I use in my videos but some of the factory powder coatings you can only get off with methyleenchloride.
Whenever I strip paint off metal it always shocks me how these strippers, acid or whatever don't affect the plastic containers I use. Says something about plastic 😟
The industrial powder coat that comes on factory rims is a lot tougher than the DIY powder coat. Go to: bencosales.com/ They sell a stronger professional stripper that is methyleenchloride safe and available to the public. Thanks for watching and commenting.
I really want to strip the coating of my tool box and re paint it a different colour but there's no way I'm going to be able to submerge the whole thing. Are there any other products/methods you could suggest?
If your tool box is already painted with paint then this stripper can just be applied with a brush and it should work just fine. If you're trying to strip existing powder coat off your tool box then you'll need to get it professionally stripped. Or just sand the existing powder coat and then paint over it. Hope this helps🙂
Thank you!!! this stuff works wonders in like 15-20 mins. Coat came off like a blanket.

You'll have to submerge it in this stuff to get the effect you're looking for.
Wow great advice! I just tried brushing this on to my powder coated wheels and was hating life. Going to get a gallon tomorrow and make a vat 🍻
Go for it! You might need more than a gallon to do a wheel. Thanks for watching!

Where do you purchase your mc from?
@@kidn1980 See my reply to Cycle Fab
I'll buy stripaint 9900 at 45 bucks a gallon and it makes 2 gallons, just need a metal tub and a way to heat it.

Yes. You'll need the stronger industrial stripper for that. The stripper that I made the video about works "okay" with the DIY powder coating only.
@@CycleFab Ok thank you for your help, much appreciated 👍
You stated that methylene chloride is $1,000 for a 55-gallon drum but this would cost over $3,000. Not sure how it is more cost effective?
Because I don't need 55 gallons of stripper.
Can I put it in a tub with a lid and reuse it? Because that would make me more inclined to spend the bucks. Thanks!
Yes! You can. That's what I do. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Masala Tere Bhai Very nice video you shared 🌸🌸🌸🌸💙💗
Thank you so much!
I’m curious, I have tried this clean strip and it didn’t work, however mine came in the same container, but the actual stripper itself if a yellow/gold color, maybe you have a newer mix? Gonna have to get another container of it and see if it works any better
Make sure it is the "premium" version.
Thanks for delivering me from 30k videos of people mixing together household chemicals to not remove any power coasting...
Funny and true! Glad that I was able to help.
Hey do have any project bikes you’re working on?
Yeah, I've got a Suzuki GS550 that I've got to get back to. Making a Street Tracker out of it, plan to powder coat and Cerakote it only, no paint. We'll see...
I have clear coat over my powder coat will it still work thru the clear?
It should, it will just take longer. This stripper works fine for the DIY powders that I use in my videos but some of the factory powder coatings you can only get off with methyleenchloride.
Do I need to strip my brand new lift before powder coat??
It’s already powdered black
Not if it's already powder coated.
It would be a good idea to scuff it up with scotch bright first, then you can powder coat right over the top of it. Thanks for watching!
@@CycleFab thank you will do!!!
Whenever I strip paint off metal it always shocks me how these strippers, acid or whatever don't affect the plastic containers I use. Says something about plastic 😟

@@CycleFab Okay, thanks for your help. I'm coming to the unfortunate conclusion that I will probably just have to sand the whole thing!
Is it safe to put on stainless steel you think?
Yes.
I've had some powder coated parts sitting in this for 48 hours and they still look new, it hasn't worked at all for me.
If it's a factory powder coat, like what comes on wheels, then you'll need to use a professional methylene chloride type stripper.
Compared to Jasco?
No. I have not used Jasco.
