Product Information

Full details

The Bartoline TX10 Paint Varnish Stripper is designed for DIYers and professionals tackling tough paint and varnish removal jobs. Its key benefit is its powerful, methylene-chloride free formulation that effectively strips multiple layers of paint and varnish without rapid evaporation. A potential caveat is that it requires a longer dwell time for very thick coatings, necessitating patience and planning for optimal results.

FAQs

Is Bartoline TX10 safe to use indoors?

Yes, it is suitable for indoor application. However, ensure good ventilation and wear appropriate protective gear.

What types of paint and varnish can TX10 remove?

Bartoline TX10 strips most solvent and water-borne paints and varnishes, including polyurethane varnishes.

How long should I leave the stripper on the surface?

Typically, leave for approximately 1 hour. For very thick layers or maximum effect, cover with plastic sheeting and leave for 6-8 hours.

Can I use wire wool to clean the stripped surface?

No, do not use wire wool. Use a scrubbing brush for rubbing down the stripped area.

What should I do if I get TX10 on my skin?

Wash immediately with plenty of soap and water. Seek medical attention if irritation persists.

How should I store Bartoline TX10?

Store in a cool, dry place and protect from frost. Ensure the container is securely closed.

Is this product flammable?

No, the formulation is non-flammable.

Troubleshooting

Stripper not softening paint effectively

Ensure a thick, even coat was applied and was not brushed out. For stubborn coatings, cover with plastic sheeting and increase dwell time to 6-8 hours. Ensure the product has not evaporated due to high temperatures.

Product appears to be drying out too quickly

This is due to minimal evaporation which means it should continue working. If it seems to be drying completely, ensure the area is not too hot or windy. For very thick layers, covering with plastic sheeting will maintain moisture and prolong effectiveness.

Residue left after scraping

Ensure all softened paint is scraped off thoroughly. Wash the stripped area with detergent and water, then rinse thoroughly with clean water.

Surface appears discolored after stripping

Test compatibility on an inconspicuous area first. Thorough washing and rinsing with clean water is essential to remove all stripper residue.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Effectively removes multiple layers of paint and varnish.
  • Safer to use due to its methylene-chloride free and non-flammable properties.
  • The non-drip formula is excellent for vertical and overhead applications.
  • Minimal evaporation ensures the stripper remains active for longer.
  • Suitable for a wide range of surfaces including wood, masonry, and most metals.

Cons

  • Requires a longer dwell time (up to 6-8 hours with plastic sheeting) for very thick paint layers.
  • May require multiple applications for stubborn or old coatings.
  • Wire wool should not be used for rubbing down stripped areas.
  • Needs thorough washing and rinsing after use.
  • Testing on an inconspicuous area is recommended for compatibility with certain materials.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Preparation:

  1. Read the product label thoroughly before use.
  2. Wear appropriate protective gloves.
  3. Protect surrounding areas, including floor coverings and textiles, from potential splashes or drips.
  4. Ensure surfaces to be stripped are dry.
  5. Shake the container securely before use.

Compatibility:

  • Suitable for wood, masonry, and most metal substrates.
  • Test on a small, inconspicuous area of metals, plastics, and other sensitive materials to confirm compatibility before full application.
  • Effectively strips most solvent and water-borne paints and varnishes, including polyurethane varnishes.

Application:

  1. Pour a quantity of TX10 into a suitable container.
  2. Apply a generous, thick, even coat (approximately 1 litre per square metre) using a brush. Do not brush out thinly.
  3. Allow the stripper to work for approximately 1 hour. For thick layers, a second dabbing coat may be applied.
  4. For maximum effect on numerous layers, cover the applied stripper with plastic sheeting and leave for 6-8 hours.
  5. Once the coating is softened, scrape off using a shave hook. Repeat if necessary.
  6. Rub down the stripped area with a scrubbing brush (do not use wire wool).
  7. Wash the stripped area with detergent and water, rinse with clean water, and allow to dry.

Care and Storage:

  • Store in a cool, dry place.
  • Protect from frost.
