1. Wear chemical-resistant gloves and chemical splash goggles. Shake well and open can slowly to relieve pressure.
2. Pour into sprayer bottle and tighten sprayer to bottle. With bottle in upright position, turn spray nozzle away from you and adjust nozzle to desired spray pattern (spray, stream or fan). Apply an even, liberal coat of stripper to a small area (up to 9 sq ft). Leave the area and let the stripper do the work.
3. After 15 minutes, test scrape a small area to see if finish is ready for removal. Remove loosened finish by gently scraping in direction of wood grain with a plastic stripping tool. A toothbrush, toothpick or stripping brush will help remove old finish buried in recesses. Multiple coats or stubborn finishes may require repeat application.
4. Use a clean abrasive pad dipped in After Wash or Odorless Mineral Spirits to loosen remaining finish and remove any residue. Surface should be completely clean and dry before refinishing.

Protect surrounding areas with a heavy plastic drop cloth. Do not use on linoleum, plastic, rubber, asphalt tile, fiberglass or other synthetics.

CLEAN UP: Pour any stripper remaining in spray bottle back into can. To clean bottle, rinse in warm water. To clean sprayer, immerse in warm water, hold under the water, and with spray nozzle turned away from you, pump for 30 seconds. Do not use sprayer or bottle with any other product. The work area and tools can be cleaned up with soap and water. Wash arms and hands with cold water and soap.

What type of brush should I use?
Any inexpensive brush will work but the stripper will probably damage the brush, so plan on throwing it away. Synthetic (polyester and nylon) brushes may deform, but that's ok because the brush is simply used to brush the remover over the surface. Natural bristle brushes are probably your best choice.

How should a sprayable stripper be applied?
Using the plastic spray applicator, spray on a thick coat of stripper. Allow stripper to work for 15 minutes, and then test scrape the surface. When the finish is ready to remove, scrape it off and clean the surface with Klean Strip® Odorless Mineral Spirits or Paint Thinner to remove residue.

How much paint stripper should be applied?
As thick of a coat as possible without running—the more stripper on the surface, the faster, easier and more complete the stripping will be. The same is true of spray-on strippers. Excess can be pushed onto nearby spots and reused.

Does it get too cold to use paint stripper?
Yes, both the ambient temperature and the core temperature of the item being stripped need to be between 65˚ and 85˚.

How much coverage can I get out of a can of paint stripper?
Typically, it will cover up to 80 sq. ft. per gallon — or 20 sq. ft. per quart.

The stripper dried on my surface, what should I do?
Reapply the stripper liberally and let it stand 15 to 30 minutes. Scrape and then clean the surface with Klean-Strip® Odorless Mineral Spirits or Klean-Strip® After Wash.

How do you open the can?
Many Klean-Strip® products are tightened to prevent leakage. A pair of channel lock pliers can be used to free the cap.

What is the shelf life Klean Strip® Premium Sprayable Stripper?
The shelf life is three years unopened and 6 months after opening.
