Barrettine Peelaway 7 Paint Removal Stripper White 750ml PEA775

Peelaway 7 is an environmentally safer paint remover because it does not contain methylene chloride or caustic and is chemically more in harmony with the environment. It will remove oil-based alkyd and latex based paints polyurethanes, varnish, shellac and most epoxy coatings. The chemicals contained in Peelaway 7 have a very low rate of evaporation and a high level of biodegradability. Because of these safety factors Peelaway 7 requires a little more time to work than with more aggressive chemical removers. It is excellent for carved and moulded areas, where a cast of the stripped surface is often seen on the Peelaway 7 paper as it is removed. The product is a viscous, gel-like paste incorporating high boiling point, polar solvents to break down and soften multiple layers of paint in a single application. The paint softening action relies on Peelaway 7 being spread out evenly and consistently across the painted surface and then being covered by a unique laminated paper blanket which bonds to the stripper and at the same time retains its stripping activity within the surface ensuring full penetration of up to 6 layers or more within a single application. After 24 hours the blanket is slowly peeled away to remove all the paint stripping residues revealing the original clean surface left. The low volatility and excellent cling properties of the Peelaway 7 ensures it remains in contact with the painted surface for as many hours as it takes to soften and degrade the coating layer by layer. After 24 hours the gel can be scraped away using a sharp edge to remove all the paint stripping residues revealing the original clean surface. This formulation has a proven record in applications where the use of other strippers is restricted, such as marine coatings, plastic substrates and locations where adequate ventilation is limited.
