50 - 75 sq ft / gallon |
| Surface Preparation |
Protect people, vehicles, property, glass, solvent sensitive materials, roofing material, plants and all surfaces not set for stripping from product, splash, rinse, residue, fumes and wind drift. Some metal finishes and glass may be damaged by exposure to Fast Acting Stripper. Protect with solvent-resistant polyethylene secured by duct tape. Sure Klean® Strippable Masking is not appropriate for use with stripping products. Prepare surface by scraping or pressure rinsing to remove all peeling and/or loose coatings. Let the surface dry thoroughly before applying stripper. |
| Application |
ALWAYS TEST (minimum 4 ft. x 4 ft. area) for suitability and results before overall application. Test using the following application instructions to find the proper dwell-time and the number of applications to remove all traces of coating. Let test areas dry thoroughly before inspection. Conduct tests under weather conditions similar to those anticipated during clean-down. Cleaning compounds are affected by temperature. Dwell times used successfully in one season may not be effective in another. Don’t let stripper dry on the surface. If tests indicate long dwell times, reapply to keep the previously applied material wet. Keep people away from stripper.
Dilution Do not dilute or alter product in any way.
Exterior Application Instructions
1. Working from the bottom to the top, apply a thick coating to dry surface.
2. Let stripper dwell 15-30 minutes or until coating “lifts” or shows signs of dissolving. Periodic agitation with a stiff bristle brush improves penetration. Some coatings will need multiple applications/increased dwell time.
3. Working from the bottom to the top, remove stripper and residue with pressure-water rinse. Heated water may improve stripping efficiency.
4. Thoroughly clean with the appropriate Sure Klean® product.
Interior Application Instructions
1. Apply a thick coating to dry surface.
2. Let stripper dwell for 5-10 minutes or until coating “lifts” or shows signs of dissolving. Periodic agitation with a stiff bristle brush improves penetration.
3. Using a low-pressure tank sprayer, apply a mist of water to the treated surface. Water helps emulsify the old sealer and dilute the stripper so residues may be more easily picked up.
4. Using a spark-proof/explosion-proof power-scrubber or buffer with an abrasive, nonmetallic scrubbing pad for floors, or stiff-bristled brush for walls, scrub the surface until coatings are gone. Add more water to aid scrubbing.
5. Use towels, mops or spark-proof/explosion-proof wet vacs to collect liquid residue. Locate wet-vac motor outdoors well away from application site in high area, where vapors will not collect.
6. Thoroughly brush or mop-and-bucket-rinse with clean water. If needed, clean surface with appropriate Sure Klean®masonry cleaner. |
| Clean Up |
Clean tools and equipment with high-flash aromatic naphtha or similar solvent. Cleaning with water may be sufficient if material has not dried. |
| Precautions |
Danger. Poison. Flammable liquid and vapor. May be fatal or cause blindness if swallowed. Vapor harmful. For use by professional applicators only. Keep out of the reach of children.
Precautionary Measures
Cannot be made nonpoisonous. Contains: Methylene chloride, amine, xylene, alcohol and methyl alcohol. Causes eye, skin and respiratory irritation. May affect the brain or nervous system causing dizziness, headache, or nausea. Methylene chloride has been shown to cause cancer in certain laboratory animals. Risk to your health depends on level and duration of exposure. Reduces the blood's oxygen carrying capacity. Vapors may ignite explosively. Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Do not smoke. Vapors may ignite explosively and may travel along the ground or by ventilation to ignition sources far from the application site. Extinguish all flames and pilot lights, and turn off stoves, heaters, electric motors and other sources of ignition. |
