This product is amazing. Only took one application and 2 coats came off perfectly. It did take some sanding m. We chose to use a brightner which enhanced the wood grain.

Works quickly
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used Citristrip Paint and Varnish Stripping Gel on various projects. I was pleased with how quick and easy the paint layers removed. I just applied a generous coat with a brush and waited 30 minutes. The ald paint scraped right off. I was pleasantly surprised by the clean citrus scent. Product is packaged in a resealable plastic jug with safety cap. I highly recommend!!

Super excited
I used a different brand & was very disappointed. Used citristrip put plastic over cabinet door. Left for 9 hours overnight. Came off like butter. No smell but very sticky. Used a bristle brush for the rest of the residue. Very happy with the results & would be my go to. Will recommend to anyone for paint & varnish remover. I did 1 cabinet without plastic & just as a test. Only 1 layer came off. The plastic wrap is best way it use product.

Great product!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought a bookcase at an antique store and didn't realize how much work it needed before it could be used. It had not been painted well so I got Citristrip Paint & Varnish Stripping Gel to take off the old finish. The instructions were very easy to follow and the product worked great. There were no fumes to deal with which was a bonus. Gave me the perfect surface to stain and my bookcase looks great!

Great for engraving powder coated tumblers
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been wanting to try the new craze, engraving powder coated tumblers. I finally gave it a try with Citristrip. I put my stencil on very tightly, then globbed Citristrip, which is very thick, onto the design. It sat for an hour, then I had to rinse the Citiristrip off the tumbler and scrub off the loose paint. The Citristrip did a great job of removing the paint and I think my project turned out pretty good for a first try. I did this project in the garage so that I'd have enough ventilation, but I didn't notice any strong smell.

Stripped paint damaged wood
Tested on a cabinet door, leaving Citristrip on for 4 hrs. Paint came off pretty well, but still needed a bit more scraping than I wanted. Decided to leave the rest of the cabinet doors in Citristrip for longer. Let sit about 11 hours under plastic and when I began to scrape, it was immediately clear the wood was damaged. The paint came off but the product damaged the wood. Followed all instructions. Being generous with 2 stars because if you intend to paint your wood, this should be fine.

Actually shocked at how well it worked
I have painted my fireplace three times. I decided I wanted to take it back down to the original brick. I was told by my husband and brother it would be near impossible. This stuff takes some elbow grease, but it sure is working! There are some places I will need to lightly sand, but I am pleased overall that all three layers came off much easier than expected. The place behind where my TV was only had a single layer of paint and it has just melted away before I have even started scraping.

Don't Use This Product
My wife and I have been refinishing furniture for well over 40 years and were very disappointed with CitriStrip. We followed the instructions to the "t" even covering it with plastic wrap -- it didn't work. After three coats it didn't cut through "layers of paint" as advertised; it didn't even get through two in most places. What you end up with is a huge sticky mess near impossible to get off. Denatured alcohol Not mineral spirits will clean this, but with a lot of work!
