The Bartoline TX10 Paint Varnish Stripper is for DIYers and professionals tackling tough paint and varnish removal jobs. Its key benefit is its high-performance, non-flammable, and non-caustic formula that effectively strips multiple layers of paint and varnish without harsh fumes or rapid evaporation, making it ideal for vertical surfaces. A minor consideration is the need for thorough surface preparation and protection to avoid unintended damage.

Yes, Bartoline TX10 is suitable for indoor application. Its methylene-chloride free and non-flammable formulation means it has less harsh fumes compared to some other strippers, but good ventilation is still recommended.
Typically, leave the stripper for approximately 1 hour until it reacts with and softens the paint or varnish. For stubborn or multiple layers, covering with plastic sheeting for 6-8 hours can improve performance.
It is suitable for wood, masonry, and most metal substrates, and effectively strips most solvent and water-borne paints and varnishes, including polyurethane varnishes.
No, you should not use wire wool. Rub down the stripped area with a scrubbing brush and then wash with detergent and water.
It is crucial to protect surrounding areas before application. If contact occurs, wash the affected area immediately with detergent and water, then rinse thoroughly.
Store the product in a cool, dry place and protect it from frost. Ensure the container is securely closed after use.
Bartoline TX10 strips most solvent and water-borne paints and varnishes, including polyurethane varnishes. However, it is always recommended to test on a small area first, as some specialized finishes may react differently.
Ensure a thick, even coat was applied and left for the recommended time. For very thick layers, try covering with plastic sheeting for 6-8 hours. Verify the product is suitable for the type of paint/varnish being removed and that the surface was dry.
This formulation has minimal evaporation. If rapid drying is observed, ensure the product is within its shelf life and stored correctly. Using plastic sheeting to cover the applied area can help maintain its activity.
Always test on an inconspicuous area first. Some highly durable or specialized coatings may require multiple applications or may not be fully compatible. Refer to the product label for specific substrate recommendations.
While designed to be non-drip, excessive application or heat can sometimes cause minor drips. Apply evenly and avoid over-application. For vertical surfaces, a careful, consistent coat is key.
Preparation: Before application, read the product label thoroughly. Always wear protective gloves. Protect surrounding floor coverings, textiles, and any surfaces you do not wish to treat. Ensure surfaces to be stripped are dry. Shake the container well before use and ensure it is securely closed after pouring the required amount into a separate container.
Compatibility: Bartoline TX10 is suitable for wood, masonry, and most metal substrates. It effectively strips most solvent and water-borne paints and varnishes, including polyurethane varnishes. However, it is crucial to test compatibility on a small, inconspicuous area of metals, plastics, and other substrates before full application to prevent damage.
Application: Apply a generous, thick, even coat of TX10 using a brush at a rate of approximately 1 litre per square metre. Do not brush out the product. Allow it to work for approximately 1 hour, or until the product reacts with and softens the paint/varnish. For surfaces with fewer than 5 layers of paint, a second coat may not be necessary. Apply a second coat if needed, using a dabbing motion. Scrape off the softened coating with a shave hook. Repeat if necessary. Rub down the stripped area with a scrubbing brush (DO NOT USE WIRE WOOL). Wash down the stripped area with detergent and water, rinse with clean water, and allow to dry.
Care and Storage: Store the product in a cool, dry place and protect it from frost. Ensure the container is securely closed when not in use.
