The Bartoline Paint Predator Fast Action Paint & Varnish Stripper is designed for DIY users and professionals needing to quickly remove multiple layers of paint and varnish. Its key benefit is its rapid action, softening up to three layers in as little as 30 minutes. A caveat is that stripping times and effectiveness can vary based on the type and number of coatings, as well as substrate condition.

It is formulated to remove up to 3 layers of typical paint or varnish coatings in approximately 30 minutes.
Yes, it is non-flammable, non-caustic, and methylenechloride-free, making it suitable for use in domestic households, including indoor applications.
It is suitable for wood, masonry, and most metal substrates. However, always test on a small, inconspicuous area of metals, plastics, and other substrates to determine compatibility.
While effective softening occurs within 30 minutes, the stripper can continue to work for 2-3 hours if left applied, potentially softening more stubborn coatings.
Use a shave-hook or similar scraping tool. Do not use wire wool for cleaning stripped areas, as it can scratch the surface.
One litre of the stripper is sufficient to cover approximately 1 square metre of surface area.
Yes, ensure the surface to be stripped is dry before application. Protect surrounding areas, as the product can damage them.
Ensure a generous, thick coat was applied and left for the minimum 30 minutes. Verify the type and number of paint layers; thicker or specialized coatings may require a second application or longer dwell time. Ensure the surface was dry before application.
Test compatibility on an inconspicuous area first, especially with plastics or certain metals. Ensure you are not using excessive force during scraping and are not using wire wool for cleaning, which can scratch surfaces.
Apply a thicker coat to prevent premature drying. Ensure there are no drafts or excessive heat in the application area which can speed up evaporation.
Preparation: Before application, ensure the surface to be stripped is dry. Shake the container well. Protect surrounding areas, floor coverings, and textiles as the stripper can damage them. Always wear protective gloves.
Application: Apply a thick, even coat of the stripper using a brush at a rate of approximately 1 litre per square metre. Do not brush out the applied stripper. Allow it to soften the coating for at least 30 minutes. Use a shave-hook to remove the softened paint or varnish. If necessary, reapply.
Cleaning: After stripping, scrub the area with a brush and then wash down with a detergent and water solution. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and allow the surface to dry completely.
Compatibility: Suitable for wood, masonry, and most metal substrates. Always test on a small, hidden area of metals, plastics, and other materials to check for compatibility before full application.
Care: Keep the container securely closed when not in use. Store in a cool, dry place.
