Comments about Circa 1850 Circa 1850 Heavy Body Paint & Varnish Remover:
Good stuff and easy to handle. Forget all the paint removers which do not have hefty odor. They are all not worth the money.
Lifts off even old latex layers in a height up to 4mm but you need to apply a reasonable quantity of the remover or apply it twice. Apply it half finger thick and it will eat the latex like a gourmand.
Use gloves or you may be not too glad after the job.

I use this to strip the antique radios that I restore. It was good with details and good with vertical surfaces. The only problem is that it dries to quickly.

Comments about Circa 1850 Circa 1850 Heavy Body Paint & Varnish Remover:
We inherited an old row boat from my wife's childhood cottage. It must've been painted every year since the 1960s.
The stripper did a great job of eating through a good 8 layers of paint at once. I was pretty impressed as I'm not that much of an expert when it comes to stripping.
I followed the instructions and even consulted the company's website before beginning (which really had some good info on their forum) and was really happy with the results.
Now I'm just waiting for it to get warmer so I can go out fishing on the lake!

Comments about Circa 1850 Circa 1850 Heavy Body Paint & Varnish Remover:
Bought it for verticle hull surfaces and bottom, also purchased Aqua Strip and 1850 was no match for Aqua Strip. Aqua Strip can be reactivated with water in a spray bottle and continues to strip until it is scrapped off.
