How long should I leave the remover on the surface?

Do I need to wear a mask?

While the product is low-odor and non-toxic, it's always a good idea to work in a well-ventilated area. A mask is not essential but may offer added comfort.

How do I clean up after using the remover?

Can I use this on vertical surfaces?

What should I do if the remover gets on my skin?

Wash the affected area with soap and water immediately. If irritation persists, consult a physician.

Troubleshooting

The remover is not working.

Ensure the remover has been applied correctly. Allow sufficient dwell time. For stubborn layers, reapply and allow more time. Check the product's expiration date.

Difficulty scraping off the old finish.

Apply a thicker layer of remover and allow more time to dwell. Use a sharper scraper, holding it at a low angle to the surface.

Remover is drying out too quickly.

Work in smaller sections. Avoid direct sunlight or drafts. Reapply as needed to keep the surface wet.
