With my heart in my mouth...

By Newt1111

from Jenkintown, PA on 5/22/2008

Best Uses:

Detailed Work

Describe Yourself:

Do-It-Yourself

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I own an old Martin guitar with an intricately carved face. Carved themes from folksongs made this a one-of-a-kind instrument, for which I had been offered several thousand dollars. I sent it to a luthier to fix a split inside brace, and to my horror, he had heavily shellacked the carving, thereby ruining the value of the guitar.

I needed to strip the shellac off, but did so with my heart in my mouth. If the product also dissolved the glue, or loosened any of the parts, the guitar would have been totally ruined.

I used this product... very carefully! It easily removed the several layers of shellac without harming the glued parts, and further, it did a great job of removing the coating of even the deepest carved parts. What a great product this is!

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This is the only product I use for detailed painted antiques. It won't hurt the wood and one layer of this stripper beats several applications of all the other strippers I have tried.
