What surfaces can I use Peel Away on?

Peel Away is suitable for use on woodwork, brickwork, masonry, plaster, hardwoods, stone, metal, and marine fibreglass.

What is the difference between Peel Away 1 and Peel Away 7?

Peel Away 1 is designed for oil-based and lead-containing paints, while Peel Away 7 is formulated for modern, water-based, and solvent-based paints and varnishes.

How long should I leave the poultice on?

Dwell time varies depending on the paint type and the product instructions; always follow the instructions included with your product.

Is Peel Away safe to use?

Peel Away is free from harmful chemicals like methylene chloride and caustic soda, but always wear appropriate PPE and follow safety instructions.

How do I dispose of the removed paint?

Dispose of the removed paint and poultice properly, following local regulations for hazardous waste.

What tools do I need?

You will need the Peel Away formula, a plastic scraper, gloves, eye protection, a respirator, and the provided membrane.

Can I reuse the membrane?

The membrane is designed for single use to ensure effectiveness; dispose of it along with the removed paint.

What if the paint remover isn't working?

Troubleshooting

Paint is not lifting.

Ensure the correct Peel Away formula was used for the paint type. Extend the dwell time, and reapply if necessary.

Poultice is drying out.

Ensure the membrane is properly applied and sealed to prevent drying. If it dries, re-wet the poultice.
