Old, flaking or poorly adhering paint can slow down your painting project considerably. Many people try to remove paint by sanding, but this is time-consuming, dusty and can damage the surface. Especially with multiple layers of paint or difficult surfaces, sanding is often not the best solution.
Fortunately, paint removal can be a lot easier. With a powerful paint stripper, you soak off the paint layer without sanding, allowing you to work safely, quickly and thoroughly. The result: a completely clean surface ready for a new, tightly adhering coat of paint.
Below you will read why paint sometimes comes off, why paint removal with sanding is often disappointing and how to effectively remove old layers of paint without fuss with Super Paint Stripper.
Why remove old paint
When paint is damaged, several layers have built up on top of each other or the surface is no longer even, the paint layer should be removed first. Repainting seems faster, but almost always results in poor adhesion, cracks and paint coming off again.
With a paint stripper, you can safely and thoroughly loosen old paint so you can start over with a clean surface.
Why ordinary cleaning products don't work
Many people try to remove old layers of paint with sandpaper, ammonia or home, garden and kitchen remedies. This often results in frustration:
Sanding - takes a long time, creates dust, damages wood and does not get into corners and details.
Ammonia or all-purpose cleaner - cleans but does not dissolve paint.
Hot water or suds - works only on water-based paints and then only to a very limited extent.
Only a professional paint stripper can really loosen the paint layer without damaging the substrate.

How to remove paint?
Paint removal is best done with Supercleaners paint stripper, discover the steps for best results here:
- Always put a test piece first to see if you get the desired finish. This can vary from one substrate and coating to another.
- When using a brush, we recommend one with natural bristles
- Apply Super Paint Stripper liberally to the coating/decorative plaster to be removed. (The layer should be thicker than the one you want to remove)
- For plaster, it is best to leave Super Paint Stripper overnight to soak in. It is usual to wrap the object with foil after applying the product. This will prevent the product from drying out.
- Dissolved coating or decorative plaster can be removed with a paint scraper, putty knife, hard brush or pressure washer (60 to 90 degrees
- For exterior walls, we recommend working from bottom to top.

Common paint removal mistakes
Even with a good stripper, things can go wrong. Small mistakes quickly result in paint not coming off properly or the process taking longer than necessary. These common pitfalls will help you avoid frustration and get the most out of Super Paint Stripper.
- Apply too thinly
If the layer is too thin, the paint stripper cannot loosen the paint layers properly. Always apply the product liberally. - Leave it in for too short a time
Hasty scratching attempts will give poor results. Always let the stripper do its job for sufficient time. - Working in sun or strong wind
This will cause the product to dry out too quickly, reducing its depth of action. Work preferably in the shade. - Do not use film in thick layers
With decorative plaster or multiple layers of paint, the product works better under foil. This way, it stays active and does not dry out. - Scratching too hard
Scratching with too much force can damage wood or soft substrates. Let the stripper do most of the work.
