Got the job done

Would Recommend

Works well to etch on cups, easy to use and had a nice citrus scent. However the scent lingered for a few days and gave me a headache so best to use in well ventilated areas

It can be a bit messy if you use too much at once.

Would Recommend

It was easy to use and worked pretty quick! I will definitely be buying again for future products. Make sure to wear gloves and use a stainless steel scrubber for those hard to reach places.

Can't believe how good this is!

Would Recommend

I don't write too many glowing reviews, but this stuff blew me away. I got a lot of enamel overspray on my very expensive epoxy garage floor and I almost cried. I found this at Lowes and tried it. It seems to work much faster that described and was easy to clean up. Next, I'm going to try and get the overspray off my Scooter which has a fiberglass body, wish me luck.

Good Stuff

Would Recommend

Its good stripper. Its not as fast as the nasty old stuff with Methyl Chloride, but the CitrisStrip won't poison you either. And this stuff smells good, too.

Directions are clear, consistency is as expressed, easy to apply, not the best available for trim and crown molding paint removal.. very hard to take off when left on over 2 hours

Not for newbies

Would Not Recommend

I've used this product on two separate occasions and I can say without doubt it is effective. I don't like how thickly it has to be applied and then be covered in plastic wrap to do it's best work and you also can't apply it with a foam brush. It's too much of a pain to use for an amateur, I'd rather just not purchase a thing if it requires stripping paint off.

Safe way to remove paint

Would Recommend

We have used this for many projects where removing pant was difficult. After it sits, most of the paint will scrape right off.

Worthy

Would Recommend

Smells better than the other brands, but still needs some sanding to make stain/varnish go away.
