Once that happens, the stripper has lost one of the components that strips! If you find that you are making goo, try diluting the stripper a little more. Hot water will also cause the solvents in stripper to flash of in some cases. Hot water will evaporate quicker and leave you with goo on the floor. Sometimes you just have to grin and bear it.īe careful about using hot water.

You will find that complete, technique (a chemially resistand sealer by SC Johnson), on'n on, betco best and hybrid 25, and trilinc can all be tougher. There are some finishes that are just a bear to strip. It is designed to remove thier laminator system, which is polyurethane enhanced. It is better than the Emulsifier Plus, and works at weaker dilutions.

The best I have used so far is Spartan's Endura Strip. Their Pro Strip is a very good stripper, but it is pricey, and rough on the lungs. I heard for years from MANY sources that SC Johnson's finishes were built so that you HAD to use their stripper to remove them. Some brands of finishes will strip easier with the same brand fo stripper. Lot's of opinions here, and ya know what they say about those. If you have them a couple of handles is ideal (otherwise kneepads are recommended) very important if you have a lot of sealer/wax to remove. It kind of lets the wax flow through the pad. This lets you keep stripping because it doesn't fill up with wax. That means when you look at it it is very open. And a very good High Productivity Stripping pad. You need to have adequate dwell time 20-30 min. If you are grabbing a sizable piece of floor cold water gives you more working time with the stripper. If you don't get the floor vac'ed and then rinsed off before it starts drying on the floor you have to go through the section again with the buffer. The potential pitfall is if you use hot water in the stripper it will evaporate quicker.

The strippers we're talking about don't need it. Beware of using hot water in your stipper. NCL only pays freight on 1500 lb orders, and there isn't a distributor anywhere within an hour so I never used more than that. As far as Bare Bones I used a couple of 5 gallon pales once to sample.
