Strippers


Over time we have tried many different strippers. Some smelled very very bad, some made my eyes burn,  some made my skin burn, some made me cough and gag, but none, did the job like this unassuming "natural" stripper called Citrustrip. This stuff is a miracle! It smells good, doesn't burn the skin, and its biodegradable. And what ahsum boat store did we get this from ... Wal-Mart!

I've used that stuff before and it's the greatest.

It really is. I'm curious to try it on some of the polyurethane boat paint, coz nothing that I tried has worked on that.

Wow - will have to remember that. All this crap you two are breathing in will make you forget what you are say

Jim and Heather on Meerkat said...

Uh.... saying. Thinking... Doing. Take precautions.
Good for you to find something biodegradable :)

Hear ya Heather, and taking precautions. All this boat crap, is soooo bad for the human machine and the environment. Its ironic how sailors are seen as "green" or living sustainably, but even the bottom paint on our boats slowly washing away into the sea is a pollutant, not to mention all the trash that goes along with epoxing something, or painting , or varnishing....sigh...

Thanks for the info, as we'll be "stripping" soon. There is always a Wal-Mart nearby, so this should be easy to find. Thanks again!

I love the orange goo stripper. We used it a lot on our house and have some now on the boat. Please let your readers know how it works on boat stuff!
