Comments about Citristrip® Safer Paint & Varnish Stripping Gel (HCG73803T) - 4 Pack:
I liked the fact that I could leave it on for a long period, let it work, and go work on another project.
Also, Im renovating a multi use space and no one has complained about smell or fumes.
It cleans up well.
The only complaint is that it is not available in larger sizes.

Comments about Citristrip® Safer Paint & Varnish Stripping Gel (HCG73803T) - 4 Pack:
I have used this product on a wood deck, a painted bed frame, painted brass hinges - used entire bottle - going back to get more today for a new project. I used it to get old stain off my deck before restaining and then scrubbed with a wire pad and it worked great. Used it on bed rails to strip before painting - worked fine with a scraper - needed to take paint off of some hinges - threw them in the bucket and let them soak overnight and the paint washed right off under water the next day. This product was much nicer than harsh strippers I have worked with previously. You do need to use gloves and put on a heavy coat to get old paint off - painting it on with a brush might not be enough product - I used my hands to rub it onto the surfaces so it was heavy enough to really soak into the old paint.
Pros
Cons
- Messy
Best Uses
- None doesn't work
Comments about Citristrip® Safer Paint & Varnish Stripping Gel (HCG73803T) - 4 Pack:
I would have to agree with the earlier post. This product does not work. Not only did I waste my money but lots of time as well trying to remove paint with this. I let it sit for 10 minutes, 30 minutes, 5 hours... 2 days. I reapplied, several times, NOTHING! It doesn't work. It does have a nice smell though but if that's what you're looking for, get a candle!
I would totally recommend this product... to my enemy!
Pros
- Smell good
Cons
- Waste of time
Best Uses
- Non so far
Comments about Citristrip® Safer Paint & Varnish Stripping Gel (HCG73803T) - 4 Pack:
Refinishing a dining room table and chairs Wanted something a safer than the chemical stripper. First coat lifted some of the finish but not all. The second coat let it set 12 hours covered with plastic wrap what had dried was a pain to remove. Thought I had it all off sanded and it plugged the sander right up. After an hour of a plastic putty knife, sanding and denatured alcohol I once again thought done it looked good. I let it set for 24 hours to dry.
Looked good started to put on a finish and I noticed balls of stripper building up stopped again. Still waiting for it to dry (24 hours again) Will have to hand scrape the entire piece to make sure its all gone. Next time I stick with a chemical stripper.
