Waste of time

Would Not Recommend

I bought CitiStrip for a bed headboard that only had the thinnest of varnish on it. I let it sit for almost 4 hours, covered up with a plastic drop cloth. It was gummy and there was no getting it off with mineral spirits and steel wool or scraper or brush. AND it smells disgusting. It made me nauseous even with a mask and an industrial air purifier running. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT. IMAGE THERE IS NEGATIVE TEN RATING FOR THIS PRODUCT.

Works great on polyurethane

Would Recommend

We had put truck bed liner on the bottom of a jonboat. We painted the Citristrip on, covered with plastic and let sit overnight. The next day most of the bed liner material came right off with a scrapper.
