Useful Tips
Washing Off
When washing off by hand, a sponge is essential to remove residues scrubbed off the surface.
The paint-remover should do the work, not the scraper. If any undissolved paint remains after washing off, a second application will be needed.
Masking
Polythene sheeting is compatible with all our products, making it a suitable material for masking and protection work.
Pressure-Washers
If practical, a pressure washer is the quickest way to wash off product and paint residues, however, good results may also be obtained with a scrubbing brush and water.
A hot water pressure-washer is, for most jobs, quicker and more effective than a cold water machine. For some paint removal jobs, hot is essential.
With a pressure washer, you can quickly and easily wash off the dissolved paint.
Utilizing it for gouging out the last of any undissolved paint will damage the substrate !
Keep the nozzle of the pressure-washer just near enough to the work to cleanly wash off the dissolved paint. Too close and the water pressure will damage the substrate.
What pressure?? – The higher the pressure, the further away the nozzle can be held from the surface; thus wider coverage can be obtained with each pass.
