Many had to use additional tools like wire brushes and pressure washers to achieve the desired results. Overall, the product seems unreliable, with most customers expressing disappointment in its lack of effectiveness.

Works FAST!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When they say fast acting, they mean it! It took our twenty year old deck to almost new again. We’re not going for brand new, but it’s almost there with just the stripper!

Not sure

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our deck has been chipping paint since we moved in a couple years ago so this came at the perfect time. I followed the instructions and applied the stripper and waited 15 minutes then rinsed with the jet setting on my hose. As seen in the picture it just faded the paint on the deck, I may have to do this multiple times in order to get the paint off the wood. I am glad I tested in a small spot versus attempting the whole deck.

Worked Wonders!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband used this product on one of his rental units as he does a lot of maintenance and updating himself. Wasn’t able to grab a before picture but he said this worked fantastic!! Quick, easy, effective. Not messy and got the job done right. Exactly what he needed! He also said the amount of product you get is adequate, as well!

Easy to use wood stripper

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product for from influencer. The wood stripper did a great job removing the prior paint from my wooden deck that had multiple layers of paint. It was easy to use and fast.

Simple to use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was the product we started with as we prepped our older deck to be resealed and stained. It was easy to use, did a good job removing old stain, and was not toxic smelling.

Project made easy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The prep and stripper duo is my best helpers for my outdoor patio project. Effective helping strip impurities on the wood floor to get it all ready for the base. It is safe and dries super quick as the coverage is great for the size of the product you get in this container. It is totally worth it!

Works

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The stripper was easy to apply however make sure that you use gloves as it will burn your hands. It does work but takes longer than the 15 minutes advertised. It was odor free which I really liked. It was overall effective.

Easy to Use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My deck is in serious need of help. Thanks to Valspar and Influenster, I am able to try Valspar's Fast Acting Wood Stripper. It's a ready to use formula, no mixing involved. The one gallon container should strip approximately 150-200 square feet, which is all I will need for my back deck. Afterward, I will be using Valspar's All-In-One Wood Prep to neutralize and prepare the deck for the stain. This 2-step process will make re-staining so muc...

The application was straightforward, and it started working almost immediately, which saved me so much time. I was impressed with how thoroughly it stripped the surface without damaging the wood. The low odor made it more comfortable to use, and the cleanup was easy, leaving no residue behin...

Works pretty good

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This paint stripper works pretty good and is easy to use. I was worried about having to contain it due to the chemicals but you just slap it on and pressure wash it off.

Too soon to tell

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We are the perfect customer for this product, unfortunately, it’s just a little too cold to be doing this type of project in Northern WI right now. I have struggled with my deck since moving here and so very excited to try this product. We love Valspar in this house, so I have no doubts this product will perform very well. I look forward to trying it when the weather warms up again!

Works great !

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product worked perfectly for me. I had to remove white paint from my porch and then stain it. I applied it just like the instructions described and the white paint came right off. It’s easy to pour with no mess. The drying time is fast and there isn’t an offensive odor. I would definitely recommend it to anyone that has a project like mine.

Super easy & effective

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried this out on a test plank on my exterior steps, which were badly in need of a refresh. I opted to apply it with a brush. It's really simple to get a good coat on. It has the consistency of a thin syrup. I applied and waited 15 minutes as instructed, the old paint came right off with the jet spray on my garden hose. All ready for the wood prep. It could not be easier or more effective.

Turn old products into NEW again

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wood stain easy to use. It states all the safety measures to take while using this product. It has little scent and effective at protecting wood. Used it to stain some old rocking chairs. The versatility allows you to use it on many types of wood. Easy to cleanup.
