          Answer This Question

          Every project is different and some jobs, though small, may require multiple applications. It also depends on how thick the application is. When applied 1/16 inch thick, one gallon covers approximately 25 sq. ft.

            Worked well for me
            I was originally skeptical of this paint stripper because 1. Its a California formulation of which I've found many to be sub par compared to the original versions of thinners, strippers, etc. and 2. The three star rating in the reviews. So I read the reviews and saw that some were having good and excellent results and decided to take a chance on it and it works. READ THE INSTRUCTIONS, use a tool designed to strip paint, not a putty knife.

              Works great!
              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Klean Strip premium stripper makes refinishing so much easier. It is fast and works in 15 minutes and you can spray or brush it on. You do need gloves when applying. I am very pleased and will recommend it to a friend.

                Removes old paint very fast!
                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was amazed on how fast the Klean-Strip Premium Sprayable Stripper removed the old paint off my old bench. I actually poured some of the liquid-stripper onto a metal bowl, and used a brush, even though I could have also used a spray bottle, but it was less messy, and fewer waste, by using a brush. I notice that within just 5 minutes the old paint was coming off, and so, this Klean-Strip Premium Sprayable Stripper did the job that I wanted it to do, and that it made it easy for me to scrap the old paint off, and the bench was ready for a fresh new paint job. I highly recommend this Klean-Strip Premium Sprayable Stripper if you want to save yourself some time, and headaches.

                    Works great
                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Klean strip is really good the smell isn't to bad but I would still use in a ventilated area it works fast leaving my floor ready to re varnish I was really surprised at how quick it really brought up all the old varnish with put destroying the wood grain on the old floor. Worked great on the old table as well.

                      Not nearly as good as other ones ive used, I’m sure “CA Formula” is exactly why. Took an absurd amount of this to remove garage floor paint. Hardly bubbled the paint up, still very difficult to scrape, and I’m telling you… I used a ton of this & followed the directions. But at least I saved the planet with my CA formula!!!

                      I NEEDED SOMETHING THAT WOULD TAKE OFF OLD VARNISH AND "STUFF" THAT BUILT UP ON AN OLD WOODEN BOX. THIS STRIPPER DID THE JOB! THANK GOODNESS.

                      Is not that strong, it's not removing the paint as expected, but better than nothing, could help a little.
