Use and Care Manual

b). While the undercoats are still
soft, apply another coat of stripper at approx. 1/32"
thick (20-25 mils) to the surface. The patch then
should be checked for dwell time as follows (only a
portion at any one time): Check the patch first at 2 - 4
hours, then periodically thereafter. As a rule of thumb,
the greater the layers of paint, the longer the product
should be left on. The stripper will usually remove 8 -
12 layers of paint in 24 hours. More layers of paint
(20+) or chemically resistant coatings may take longer
(2 - 3+ days).
c). This procedure usually applies
to stripping ceilings as well.
Coverage for both when used in this manner (I) and (ii)
varies between 50 and 75+ sq. ft. per gal.
3. Multi-Strip Advanced will easily cling to
vertical surfaces. Use your tool to fill detailed, intricate
or grooved surfaces. For best results apply at
temperatures between 60
0
F and 80
0
F. Product
activity is reduced below a temperature of 60
0
F and
may require additional dwell time before all layers of
paint are removed. If product freezes let thaw and stir
vigorously until product is consistent. No Neutralization
required. Clean-up with water.
C. Suggested Removal Techniques -
1. Plaster Surfaces -
(I) Flat Plaster Surfaces - Easiest
removal is achieved using a 4" or wider razor blade
scraper (commonly known as a wallpaper stripper) to
lift the remover/paint off the surface.
(II) Decorative Plaster (or Wood) -
Use a Back To Nature Stainless Steel Scraper with
5 function detail blade to lift the paint off the surface.
Use a stiff bristle brush with Ready-Strip Paint
Overspray or light amounts of water to remove any
residue.
2. Wood Surfaces -
(I) Flat Wood Surfaces - Easiest
removal is achieved using a Back To Nature
stainless steel scraper to strip remover/paint from the
surface. Use a stiff bristle brush with Ready-Strip Paint
Overspray or light amounts of water to remove any
residue.
(II) Decorative Wood - (see Decorative
Plaster)
3. Masonry, Concrete Surfaces - Remove
bulk of remover/paint with a stiff putty knife or wire
brush. Use a wire brush with Ready-Strip Paint
Overspray or light amounts of water to remove any
residue remaining. Residue can also be removed with
a high pressure washer where permitted.
4. Metal Surfaces - Agitate or rough up
remover/paint on the surface with a wire brush without
attempting removal. This helps to lift bottom layers
from the surface. Use a 4" or wider razor blade
scraper (wallpaper stripper) or stiff putty knife (pipe
railings or irregular surfaces should use the putty knife)
to lift remover/paint off the surface. Use a wire brush
with Ready-Strip Paint Overspray or light amounts of
water to remove any residue.
5. Note: Misting the applied area with Ready-
Strip Paint Overspray or water prior to removal makes
lifting of the paint or varnish easier. Misting with
Ready-Strip Paint Overspray or water also reactivates
the product if it feels dry to the touch. Any residue left
on a surface should be removed within a short period
of time so that paint residue will not dry up and re-
adhere. In some cases, it may look like the last layer
of paint is still on the surface. This is not a dried layer,
but paint which has been emulsified so it can be
removed.
V. Safety Instructions: Safety goggles are
recommended for eye protection. Wear protective
gloves such as butyl rubber, neoprene. Maintain
adequate ventilation especially in confined areas. If
spraying or misting is expected use NIOSH approved
chemical cartridge (organic vapor) respiratory
equipment (full face respirator recommended). In case
of inhalation - remove victim to fresh air and provide
oxygen if breathing is difficult. In case of eye contact -
flush exposed areas with large quantities of water. In
case of skin contact - wash skin with soap and water.
Use emollient skin creams. In case of ingestion - do
not induce vomiting. Call physician immediately.
VI. Advantages - Safest way of removing multiple
layers. Multi-Strip Advanced requires no paper
covering thereby saving valuable labor time. Multi-Strip
Advanced has twice the coverage of competitors safe
strippers. It results in significantly less waste (1/2 +)
than caustic strippers reducing disposal costs. It stays
wet for extended periods of time. Multi-Strip Advanced
can be applied by airless sprayer.
